    I'm burning DVDs with subtitles on the program, [bold]VSO ConvertxtoDVD[/bold], and everything works fine, but the subtitles. Sometimes it gets cut off...Any help on how to prevent that?

    Type of subtitle: [bold].SRT[/bold]
    The font that I use is: [bold]Arial Black[/bold]
    The size of the font: [bold]24[/bold]

    For the screen size and everything, I put it on automatic

    Sounds like overscan. I would have thought that ConvertXToDVD would put subs in a safe area by default though.

    When converting, change your resolution (or the size of the video). I had that problem with WinAVI converter too, but when converting I changed the resolution to 16:9 in the advanced section, which is the widescreen option. This way, subtitles won't be cutoff. If the VSO ConvertxtoDVD doesn't do that, then you should try WinAVI converter.
    P.S. The configuration 4:3 works too, but if it's a larger TV, subtitles will be partially cut-off, so I suggest the 16:9
