Hello,
I have an AVI file that I want to turn into a DVD burnable file.
It is a foreign film that comes with subtitles. But the subtitles are not burnt on the screen. They come separately.
I was hoping that DVD flick (version 1.3.0.7) would be able to turn the AVI file into a DVD burnable file, and also include the subtitles that come with it. But everytime I go to "Edit Title" and try to add the subtitles, this message pops up:
"The subtitle file you selected appears to be graphical. DVD Flick only supports textual subtitles"
By the way, the AVI file comes with two more files: an SUB and an IDX file.
I have no idea what those two files really do or are. But I am pretty sure that combined, they allow the AVI file to play with the subtitles.
Any information on how to turn this AVI file into a dvd burnable file with the subtitles will be welcome. Thanks!!!
Thanks for the quick reply and for the info!
I just started the process.
One question: will this "burn" the subtitles on the video, or will it give the option to turn them on and off?
Also: is there a way to do this using DVD Flick?
I have never used AvstoDVD before, but I have used DVD Flick numerous times and it always does a good job.
Thanks again!
It outputs a DVD with switchable subs (like DVD Flick) - it also uses ImgBurn to optionally burn the disk.
If you want to use DVD Flick you have to either convert the subs to a text format(e.g. .srt) or procure the likes of .srt subs from a site..
Possibly, you might want to try DVDSubEdit to load the .sup file (it will then ask you to open an .ifo file - browse to any .ifo file you have on the pc and let it load them).
On the lower right of the screen there is a 'Run OCR' and 'Save as SRT' button.
Try that and see if you get a decent list.
If it's ok, use that in DVD Flick.
