I did 12 at a time to get all 24 episodes in 2 sessions... each time it took around 18-19 hours. Not bad.
May fortune favor the foolish ones that go against guns with knives...

Yes, the sound was fixed, I didn't have to do anything with it. I believe it was fixed when I installed XviD. It's sort of echoey in a way when played on Windows Media Player or Real, but it's perfectly bearable. On stuff like VLC there's no echo, sounds perfect.
And FYI each episode was around an hour long.

You would either need to use unicode encoding or make sure that you are decoding with the correct character set.

Do what? I offered two options. Second one is easier since it just involves selecting the correct character set from the drop down menu when you are loading the subs.

Thanks for this guide, it was very useful and very simple to follow unlike the other ones I've come across.
Just one question though, I successfully combined my subtitles into my .avi file but when I went to encode it in TMPGEnc nothing happens. The progress bar will slowly fill and the Time Estimated/Remaining numbers are calculating, but the framerate stays at zero. The Estimated time is also ridiculously high(like around 40 hours). I've tried playing the video file and it seems to be working and there's no noticeable errors in it, so I'm kind of stumped.
I did try encoding another .avi I had added subtitles to using this guide and that one started encoding normally but then aborted a minute and a half in with an error about "free roaming calculations" or something. I'm thinking these problems may be steming from my XviD codec but I'm not entirely sure and I don't want to redub the video files to find out. Am I the only one having these errors? can anybody offer any help?
Also, I just noticed that the file size on the processed .avi's is much smaller than those of the source files. Is this normal?

Hard encoding subs into an AVI only to then convert to mpeg is a waste of time and quality if you use a lossy intermediate codec like XviD. Faster and better quality to use say AVISynth to frameserve with the subs.

Open up VirtualDubMod and then go to File and Open your AVI file. If it gives a message about VBR then click "NO".
2) Then click on Video-->Filters-->Add now here- depending on your subtitle file format- if your subs are in srt, sub(text), smi, ssa format then click on textsub, if you have an idx/sub/ifo subtitle add the VobSub filter intead. Now click on open and select your subtitle file. Then click OK and OK again.
3) Now go to Video-->Full Processing Mode.
4) Click on Video-->Compression and select either DivX or XviD (depending on which one you downloaded at the start) and click OK.
5) Finally go to File--> Save As and save your combined .avi file, this will take roughly 3-6 hours to make the finished .avi file. Once done, test out your video to see if the subs are combined (this method should work on whatever format subs you have)
dude...i tried ur method but i hv a problem....at this part u said:

Hmm, if you did a FULL Install of VobSub (not VirtualDubMod) then textsub should be installed, double check or try reinstalling VobSub making sure it's full install (all ticked boxes). Report back and I'll see if I can find a standalone Textsub download (though my memory is vague).

TextSub is part of VSFilter (has been for some years now). Simply download vsfilter, rename to vsfilter.vdf and place in the plugin dir. VSFilter also contains VobSub for VDub as well as both TextSub/VobSub plugins for AVISynth and (auto)directvobsub.

I found this thread to be very helful in applying my .srt subtitle file to my .avi video. It only took about 15 min once I got it started. I had some trouble getting my VirtualDubMod/Plugins folder in order but I figured it out. One question I do have is how to go about editing my subtitle file so that the subtitles are larger and lower on the screen. My video has the black bars on the top and bottom of the screen and I would like to put the subtitles on the bottom bar. I do not want to change anything else about them, the timing and everything is great. I just want to make them larger and lower. Thanks for your time.

The black bars you're talking about are not actually part of the video, your video file is probably wide screen and your monitor or TV is not as proportionally wide as the video. So the TV has nothing to display but blackness. So...since the black bars are from the display unit and not the video itself- you cannot put the subtitles into the bars. Only on the video itself.
Hope that helped. Not so sure about the resizing and stuff though.

Yes that helps. Now I just need to find out how to make the subtitles more readable. Larger for sure.

On second thought, is it possible to add a black bar to the bottom of the screen without losing any of the picture? This vid is wider then most widescreens I have seen so it will always have those bars, outside of a movie theater. The subtitles also appear blurry, but that may just be because of the pictures behind them.

Nope...dunno how to add the black bars- maybe someone else can help you out or Google for some help. But if you add the black bars the video WILL be narrower I think..I dunno if it's possible to actually extend the way :\
Hope you find what you're looking for.
