    Automatically or passively, that is.
    My initial, uninformed guess would be 'NO'.
    This may be an OCR type of issue ?

    Thanks for your replies.
    Have to check as to whether the immediate cases were .Avi. (Though more likely to be MKV.)

    Yes, I did not get very far when attempting to use it for this, but just chalked that up to learning curve issues. In the immediate example, I had just wanted to understand some dialog at the end of a French movie, where the (white) hardcoded subs got washed out against some white sky background. What I did to try and finesse this -- as a quicker, more practical matter -- was to convert the MKV to AVI, using Wonderfox HD Factory Converter. (That part was as a lead-in to trying SubRip, per the post suggestion above in favor of AVI format.) When I then played the end of the movie in VLC, there was as a by-product just enough alteration of the subs appearance as to let them be readable. So I found out what I needed to find out.

    When you hit a roadblock like this, there is usually some means to get around it -- if not always directly through it.
