    I want to transfer subtitles on a dvd.
    I have the .vob files naturally and on vlc or any other dvd player the subtitles are perfect. I have used xsilisoft, and a whole bunch of subtitle rippers but I keep getting .idx-sub files and can’t seem to open them in my DVD architect pro software. What do I do?

    if DVD architect could import STL-files you might try google-search for “subrip”(freeware).

    it´s a PC-app that could create subtitle-files from existing VOB-files.

    if you are on a mac, you could use cinematize pro.

    cheers

    I’m trying out SubRip and guess what,so far it doesn’t recognize some of the characters?!

    michael,
    subrib has an OCR-software within and you need to tell him the correct character. very simple…

    so – with a bit of work you´ll get correct ripped subtitles.

    cheers
