Looking for a good subtitling software..

[HDmania]

Hi, it seems I have to resume my quest for subtitling videos, because many videos that I have to work with come with subtitles in English embedded at the bottom and I need to put portuguese subtitles in the top and I can't find a good program, that works well, to edit this. Vidcoder works well to convert but I can't edit position or anything and this is important. Any other suggestions for good products in this field? also tried Premiere Elements and a few others.

Or if you already have text based subs like srt, you can convert to ass and control the position

What other features or control over editing do you need ?

Thanks for replying, I think I need just positioning, font and background control (opaque / transparency level)... and I am looking for a software that doesn't require a lot of technical knowledge...none of the products I have tried work properly, either they can't import the videos due to codec problems or they don't have the level of control that I need...
