subs in notepad

Hi, downloaded a sub in notepad (the only one available) and DVD Flick did not accept it. How can I go about it? Tks

 

Does it give a message saying the file is corrupt?

I see this sometimes with .ssa subtitles and DVD Flick.

If you can load/drag the subtitle file into 'Subtitle Workshop' and save it in 'Subrip' format, i.e. a .srt file, then it should load ok.

Hooray it worked. Thanks mate your great!

 

Okey-dokey.

 

Hi a new hitch cropped up. Browsing thru' the replies you said that a sub which is not an .srt load into Subtitle Workshop and save it as such. Downloaded a sub which Workshop won't even accept. It said it is an unsupported file! Any help?

 

What's the file extension of the subtitle?

 

.sub
