    I know the ipod doesnt support .ssa subtitle files. I usually use videora ipod converter to convert my xvid movies into mp4 to be used ont he ipod. But I now have a xvid file with .ssa subtitles. I guess the only way to get subtitles and the movie onto my ipod is to re-encode the movie w/subtitles as 1 file. How would I go about doing that?

    Looks like it is ffmpeg based which means it supports AVISynth scripts as input. Even look like the installer includes AVISynth. So you can just create a script and use textsub() to load the subtitles.

    Yep. Basically just:
    AviSource("c:\createdfolder\yourfile.avi")
    TextSub("c:\createdfolder\yourfile.SRT")
    No need to load vsfilter if it is in the AVISynth plugin dir.
