I'm using latest version of subtitle edit and I have a DVD with NL-Durch subtitles and I want to convert to srt. Then inside subtitle edit tool I downloaded the dictionaries for tesseract for German and Netherlands Dutch and also I downloaded for the spell checking section the corresponding dictionaries. Subtitle edit recognize both dictionaries (tesseract and spelling) perfect in both options Dutch German or NL. Now when I click on start OCR I see the Dutch images but the results in whole process are a blank txt on each time code line. I tried choosing and mixing between dictionaries tesseract and spelling in German with NL, German with German, NL with German and so on and nothing all result process is blank text on each line with right time code. Anyone know what could be the problem?
Initially I followed this tutorial:

My guess would be you need to change the "Image palette" in Step3 of the tutorial.
But else perhaps zip the idx/vobsub and attach it to a post. -

Have you checked the known issues here: http://www.nikse.dk/SubtitleEdit/Help#issues (see the last one)

When you have Tesseract properly installed I think you need to "Use custom colors" for the image palette.
As far as I can tell from the image you uploaded the subtitles use black for anti-aliasing and grey for outline. Perhaps try the settings below. Also I would recommend you tick "Prompt for unknown words" and "Try to guess unknown words"

I tried different palettes and combinations of settings in that whole page and nothing. But I solved the conversion converting the sub to sup and then load in DVDSubEdit and there the OCR ran perfect and in 1 minute finished. I like more subtitle edit but not worked in this case. The tutorial I followed for the sup process was:

Thank you anyway.
