Hello, I recently downloaded a movie that is in Thai, it came with an .srt file type that provides english subtitles for the movie... I encoded the film to MPEG2 then authored the DVD... I used TMPGEnc to encode and author the dvd as well as writing the dvd to a dvd-r disc, i assumed that i could simply include the .srt file to the VIDEO_TS Folder (before writing the VIDEO_TS & AUDIO_TS to dvd,) now is this completely the wrong way to go about putting subtitles onto DVD or is it my DVD player?? Im almost positive that the process i carried out was incorrect but i would like to get some feedback on what i did wrong... So, thanks for any replies in advance...
i've sorted the problem so mods you can delete this thread... - changed the name of the srt (sub) file to the same name as the video file. - used VobSub v.2.23 to 'attach' the .srt (sub) file to the video file. Played the video file with the srt file in the same folder and it worked... I then: - encoded the video file (.avi file) using TMPGEnc to MPEG2 (used the output preview on TMPGEnc when encoding the file to double-check subs were in the video file). - file encoded to MPEG2 with subs - authored dvd then burnt it and it worked those were the steps preformed...
