SUBTITLE PROBLEM!!

[vellu]

HELP ME!
I want to convert my divx to vcd and add subtitles in it!
I m using virtualdub and text sub filter to add subtitles. My subtitles are *.srt and *.ssa!! I can select the files and edit it ,but when i try to preview it there is no subtitles!! Where i go wrong?? I have tried other vcd help guides too,but i could not open the sub files!!

Dear friend, if your subtitles are in ssa format, either you convert them to sub format, or (faster) you use the other subtitle filter : Avery Lee's ssa filter - which actually works very well...

You can find the filter there

Under the 'other' category, together with a whole bunch of other really good filters.

THANKS!
I hahe some *.sub files too, but i cant get them work!!
How can i know what kind of .sub files those are?? and what filter i should use??

[2man]

to mux subs with a avi file i normally do :
1.open movie.avi in virtualdub
2.add the filter (ssa - avery... )

3.then save the avi again, set audio to direct copy / video to full processing and choose de codec and settings

your new movie_sub.avi file will have the subs.

(i can´t frame serve to tmpg, and encode )

make a try
