  • Rip from DVD with Subtitles burned in

    Posted by Aaron Neitz on April 9, 2008 at 11:53 pm

    Could use some help: I have a DVD that I need to rip WITH subtitles burned in.

    I’ve been able to get the movie off, and the subtitles as a quicktime PNG stream which I can overlay, but I’m having problems with them drifting.

    Is there a program that can do this in one fell swoop?

    there’s always the old fashioned way of capturing from the dvd player into fcp via non-controllable device and a dv/hdv deck with the subtitles displayed out from the player

    Yeah, trying to avoid that… wiring up an analog deck is such a hassle 🙂 Why didn’t they ever make DVD players with SDI out?

    or almost as good; many players now have upresing with an hdmi out into your capture card, how impressive would that be, client hands you a dvd to rip, you hand them back an uncompressed HDCam tape lol!

    Aaron,

    Download “Handbrake”.
    It burns the subtitles in and creates a variety of files, QT included.
    The presets are good, can be a little fussy, but stick to the basics and it should do a good job.
