    Hi I have a good DivX file which comes with a "Subs" folder. within it, there are two file types... an ".idx" file and a ".sub" file
    Can anyone tell me what software I need to have just to watch the Video with Subs on the PC? or which software would burn it to DVD with Subtitles?

    thank you.

    For playback via dshow; directvobsub (VSFilter) or ffdshow. mplayer, VLC, etc. have built in VOBSub support.

    Standalone support for VOBSub's is not the best. To add subs to your .divx file you would need to OCR to a text format and then convert to xsubs.

    on pc.
    yopu need software, vobsub is one of it. so go download and install. the other one is ffdshow.
    there's other media player that has vobsub built in it, mplayer, VLC etc.

    for divx standalone you need to capture the picture based subtitles thats use for dvd-video. and convert it to text form as in .srt
    try subripper.

    or if you meant you want to convert to mpeg2 for normal dvd, i think you can just mux the streams using dvd authoring tool. try dvdlab. i always hardsub. too lazy to make subpictures

    If they are named the same and in the same dir then it will auto load them. They will be off by default though, but you can enable them by selecting the appropriate stream from the subtitle menu.

    hi thanks for the advice... downloaded avi2dvd.. looks quite easy to use... but to load on the sub titles files, it only accepts .txt and .srt files. how do I convert .idx or .sub files to the ones needed?

    thanks

    Another case where you need to OCR them. Try SubRip.

    Actually I don't like it either. Let the mods do the moderating.

    I've warned you before to quit acting like a Mod so how in the hell is my post hard to believe?


    No! Are you seriously not understanding what I'm telling you?


    That's what I've been trying to tell you to do.
