i thought i start a new thread here. i'm trying to burn my movies into dvds so it can play with my standalone dvd player. I am using the lastest version of Convertxtodvd. the problem is when i added my .avi file along with da subtitles (idx/sub) in da same name/folder, it shows that it is an external subtitle stream. for example, 0 internal, 2 external with the 'zh, en' both checked and the chinese subs as DVD DEFAULT. i thought that would be alright so i clicked convert. but when that was finished, i tried to play it on POWERDVD on computer and weirdly the subtitles didn't show. i've tried burning it to DVD-R to test if it works on my standalone dvd player and sure enough, no subtitles. I've clicked da 'subtitle' button on remote too but it says that its 'off' and doesn't display anything at all, which i now assume that its not there. can someone please tell me what i did wrong? someone suggested that it may not recognise the 'zh' stream which is the chinese subtitles. but i have no clue how to deselect that either.
I also have the same problem, as I am trying to burn Fearless onto dvd media....I have done the same as yourself,even unchecking the zh subtitle file,,,I wonder if the idx file has to be converted to .srt instead to work with convertxtodvd???
I also have the same problem. Has something changed in the recent versions of convertxtodvd? cos it never had this problem before!! basically, idx/sub files are now treated as "external" and they don't appear overlayed onto the resulting DVD files... someone please tell us how to sort it out! thanks
Not sure what my previous version was, but now I have 2.1.10.209. I hope this version is a lot better. Yes, I was having issues of sub showing up and then disappear for a few mins then re-appearing.
I have convertxtodvd 2.1.14.233 and am not getting the .avi and .srt files to combine in an .iso (which I view with VcdControlTool) or burn on the dvd. I have also been using iso2dvd with the same problems. I thought maybe I needed to set my tv to show subtitles, but that does not seem to make any difference. Both utilities indicate they are actually using the subtitle files before I run the really long applications and then hours later I have bad .iso or a ruined DVD+R.
