many thanks - looks very interesting - not unlike my SmartSoft video converter, but with provision for audio and subtitles

Make sure you go to the main website and download one of the latest releases, it has the option to create a menu also.

Whatever SmartSoft you're talking about, obviously not smart enough since it couldn't do the job for you.
DVD Flick will do all you need, convert multiple titles, switchable subtitles, menus...

Yes, I have downloaded and run ver 1.2.2.1

It did not accept the .sub and .idx subtitle files I had, so went online and downloaded a .srt file. the only problem with that is that the merged product had subtitles often, but not always, had <i and i> at each end of the subtitle phrase.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Also, when I play the resulting DVD on my PC using VLC, there is the option for showing or not showing the subtitles. When I play on my DVD player connected to my TV, there are no subtitles seen, and no options for showing subtitles. Am I missing out on something simple here?

All suggestions and direction much appreciated

regards,
Jill

I press 'Subtitles' or 'Display' depending on which DVD player.
