Hi.

I'm trying to Burn a movie with foreign Subs. (.srt Files) using Nero.

Ive got the movie and the subs, and I already tried to burn it.

The movie works but the subs are written in gibberish.
This is the second time I've done it with no luck.

I think there is something I'm missing, or maybe it cant be done using Nero.

Any Help...

Thanx,
Silo

Didn't think Nero supported subtitles. Anyway the problem would be the wrong character set. If the subs aren't Unicode then you need to specifically set the encoding.

OK you lost me...

Just to make it clear. I'm using AVI files and burning a Data Disk.
All I do is just add the files with the same Names, and My Divx/DVD player reads them as subs.

Now when you start talking about Unicode and Encode, that is where I start to get a little dizzy.

When I open the File in Notepad its also Written In gibberish.
But when I play the files with Winamp the Subs are shown Fine.

So from this point Im still stuck... Ill try to look in to what you were saying about Encodeing and ill see what I can Find out.

There is no way this can be harder then making a hard Copy using VirtualDubMod.

But anything else you can Suggest...
Thanx
Silo

Your player would need to support the character set used. The reason why you get gibberish is because it would be using the default character encoding so the characters get mapped incorrectly. Winamp or whatever sub renderer it is using must be detecting the encoding correctly.

You can probably forget Unicode for a SAP.
You might have to convert to bitmap based subs.

Never had to deal with anything other than 8859-1 here, but I don't think my SAP can handle anything else.
