Hi all.

I've read a few guides on this website and others about adding subtitles to dvd files, and I'm very confused. I have windows vista home premium, amd athlon dual core 1.90 ghz processor with 1918 mb ram.

What I am currently doing is - Ripping the dvd with dvd fab decrypter to the desktop.

Then I am using Convertxtodvd 4. I open the program, click on the 4 .vob files, their is always 4, the first three files are usually around 1,048,550 kb and the last one is smaller (About half that size)
Then I go to websites to download the subitles, and drag and drop them on the title set in covertxtodvd 4. Then I click convert, and it adds the subtitles to the movie and burns it automatically.
What I'm concerned about is, since the files are already dvd format, what is the converter converting them to? Am I wasting time doing it this way?
Are their any other fast programs to do this that are easy to use?

thanks very much.

P.s I do movie only rip with dvd fab decrypter.

I cannot speak to ConvertX, but other programs may have an option to 'Copy' DVD compliant files, thus the video is not recoded.
However, to add the subtitles to the movie, the video and audio have to be demuxed to separate streams then all muxed together with the subtitle stream.
This takes a certain amount of time, but is much faster than recoding.
I would expect the likes of ConvertX to copy the files.
