I want to add some 'partial' subtitles to an AVI file. Its an XviD file and I have the origional DVD to go with it. The DVD is in English, but there are one or two parts where its in a foreign language and there should be english subtitles to help the dialog flow.

Are there any free programs out there which can assist?

AFAIK AutoGK can do _some_ subtitle work.

Hope this helps


Chill.

Any chance somebody can recommend how to suck the Subtitles off a DVD then? Not _all_ the subtitles, just the 'partial' subtitles.

Not sure if thats going to be of any use to you though :-/
