I am trying to convert mkv files, which contain xvid encoded video and ac3 audio. I have tried Convertxtodvd 3 which converts but loses the subtitle styling, in other words it makes the subtitles ugly and blocky. I also tried winavi, which seems to work and for some of the files it maintains the styling, yet after a few episodes of the show I am converting, the srt files disappear and only .ass files are left, however this is okay since the .ass files are the ones that are styled as I like them. However when I convert the later episodes I get horrible ugly subtitles on a winavi converted file. Is there any way to retain the styling and convert the video to dvd format for burning?
hi there
i was looking everywhere for a simple program to burn sub or srt subtitles on dvd format try this program dvd flick it free and it actually works hope thats any help to you!
My problem is not that the subtitles can't be encoded into the dvd file, but that I cannot maintain the original font found on the files. When I encode the firt few episodes of the tv show it maintains the subtitles just fine with full styling, yet a few episodes later and the subtitles come out looking like the picture on the right of the link. I suppose after you mentioned the ability to control the font type my question then becomes, what font type and setup was used for the font I showed. Either way I have to wonder why the earlier files can be encoded with the proper format but the others cannot.
