Does DVD2AVI manage subtitles?

Hi everyone. I've to compress a multi PGC VOB with TMPGEnc, with permanent subtitles. I use the classic way of saving project from DVD2AVI, saving template.txt from IfoEdit and compress with TMPGEnc. Because I want to reduce video from 720x576 to 352x288, subtitles are invisibles. I've tried to export them, resize them, but I cannot reimport in the VOB (see my post in subtitles-part of this forum). Well, now I'm triyng to use a permanent subtitle superimposed to the original video, but I don't know how I can proceed. Does DVD2AVI support subtitles? If not, what sw I can USE? Remember that is a multi PGC, and I cannot use Flask, because if I use IFO mode I can't manage multi PGC, if I use VOB mode I can't manage subtitles. Please, help me. Thanks.

VobSub & AVIsynth. Use VobSub to rip subtitles into a separate file. Save a DVD2AVI (v1.76) project of the DVD, but do not enable crop/resisze here. Then feed the following AviSynth script to TMPEG: Code:

Thanks! I'm trying.

You might need to add the paths to the following commands: Code:

I'm sorry, Hakko, but I'm very BLIND!!! After VOBSUB writing the 2 files .IDX and .SUB, I haven't seen the option that allow to choice the subtitle language! Because I've used ONLY 1 language, I was sure that the only language present was ok. LOL! It's ALL OK. Now I can see the subtitles in TMPGEnc, and I can encode video and subtitles togheter. Thanks again! Salvo

Trouble will never dies!!! The video that I would to recompress is a multi PGC. I've obtained a video with subtitles in superimpose only in the first PGC. All others PGC are without subtitles... Damn, what's wrong, now? I was so happy! I've seen the VOBSUB joiner, but I'm unable to rejoin more than 2 files, and after rejoin first by second file, the output index file is the same of the second. There is a methode to extract with VobSub ALL the subtitle of ALL PGC's? May I use VobEdit? Its output is a .SUP file. Does working like .SUB + .IDX? There is any guide? In the doom9 I haven't seen. Thanks again! Salvo

No, we're still in the subtitle department. If you check the vobsub folder again, where you found 'VobSub Config' you should also find 'SubResynch' This proggie will give you the timestamps of all subtitle pictures in the stream. If you open the .AVS in VirtualDubMod you will be able to synch the audio very easily.You will have to look at mouth movements to get exact frame but it will play selected part of movie, and by pressing F5 it will reload the video at the current frame when you have changed the subtitles, making it very easy to iterate the steps until the perfect solution is found. Oh, and a description of how to use subresynch can be found in c:\programs\gabest\vobsub\docs\subresynch.txt and VDMod can be dl from

Thank to you, hakko, now I've the backup copy of my DVD. Thanks again. Salvo
