Ubuntu :: How Do You Save Video With Subtitles Still On It?
Apr 6, 2010
i'm currently subtitling a jpop music video and i was wondering:how do you save the video with the subtitles still on it? i'm half way through subbing, and i want to upload the video to videos with the subtitles attached but.how? i can only save them as separate files, and not singular.
I'm sure this is easy to do. I want to create one of those "Hitler" internet meme things for a presentation I'm doing at work, which of course, involves adding custom subtitles to a video. Now, I've found the tutorial that says how to use the right filter with avidemux, but I was wondering what the easiest way is to create the file for that filter to read. Is it just a matter of manually writing it up in my fav text editor? something that looks like
startTime,duration,text
(one per line) then I'd rather just textedit it manually, but if it's something complicated, then I should use some software to do it...
I have just upgraded to Lucid. While trying to watch movies (i have installed all the requisite plugins), I encountered certain problems. The following is what I noticed after some thorough search into the issue:
1. Suppose one goes to the location of a video file, say, /Home/Videos/Sound of Music.xyz , double clicking the file would open the movie player (Totem) but one would not be able to see any video, though sound is coming.
2. Sometimes, on entering the fullscreen the video started from double clicking the file is visible, but leaving full screen, it is lost again. This however doesnt happen in all cases, because mostly one sees no video if through double-clicking the file.
3. The same operation of playing, if done through the player (by /Movie/Open.. or by Adding a video file in the playlist) happens quite properly.
4. A .mkv file doesnt play for long, since the player crashes.
5. Subtitles are not detected, even after putting the settings on automatic loading of subtitles (/Edit/Preferences/Automatically.....)
I have set the hotkey for "Very short backwards jump" and "Very short forward jump" to "Left" and "Right" respectively, and yet pressing the left and right arrow key does not work. Plus when I play the video in fullscreen the subtitles look pixelated.
Can anyone recommend open software that will allow me to edit videos and add subtitles? I have footage in one language and would like to have subtitles for people that are fluent in another language.popcorn for the people watching my videos
I am trying to demux a set of VOB's from a DVD. I want to be able to extract any video/audio/subtitle/closed caption stream to a raw file. Then I want to wrap the streams that I want into an MKV file. (Probably the video, best quality audio, and all of the subtitles. But who knows, maybe all the streams...) To extract the mpeg2 video from the VOB (which I pulled off the DVD using vobcopy) I am trying to use this command:
Code: $ ffmpeg -i VTS_01_1.VOB -an -sn -vcodec copy -f rawvideo output.mpeg The problem is, that when I open output.mpeg in something like VLC, the subtitles are still there. I can turn them on/off, but I don't understand why they are there. FYI: if I do -f mpeg2video, I get the same exact output, checked with an md5sum.
I have problem with VLC player. The problem, from the image below, appears whenever I open video file. I click Ok, and a everything is ok, until I jump to another time sequence, when sound and subtitles disappear.
I would like to save a broadcast video with mplayer but I want do it while they are seeing, I mean, I want see them in real time, but also recording them and see them when I want I've actually got with audio files with:
Code: mplayer http://whatever/audio -ao pcm:file=/home/user/audio.mp3 It works perfectly, I listen to the audio file from the radio I connected and save the file. But I can't with video, I tried: Code: mplayer http://whatever/video -vo x11 -ao pcm:file=/home/user/video.mp4
while i realize it's certainly taboo to download a lot of videos videos and similar without permission, and possibly illegal in some countries due to copyright, i have also been reading that the video is clearly buffered in the page casche, so technically is stored on your machine already, but is only stored in ram. how can i save it from my firefox page casche? some mitigating info is that i have poor web speeds, and an old machine, which is not using all of the 1gig of ram for some reason.
is there a way to pipe a video feed from virtual box to vlc and save it as a file? cause if i could then i could save streaming videos from places like hulu and netflix or save bluray movies to a avi file for latter use.
My CentOS installation correctly recognize my video card and my monitor if I go to System->Preferences->Screen Resolution and set monitor refresh rate to 75 hz, everything works fine, but if I reboot, at startup refresh return to 60 hz.How can I save refresh rate value?
Problem is that with all kernel-xen x86_64 from current kernel-xen-2.6.18-194.26.1.el5.x86_64 back to kernel-xen-2.6.18-128.el5.x86_64 after kernel boots monitor goes blank and says "no video, going to power save".
Google finds similar problems and sugestions was to add "nomodeset". With this option monitor also blanks after kernel boot, but says "out of range". Other options to modify xorg.conf does not apply, becouse there is no X installed.
I try with multiple monitors, without success. This happens only with 64bit kernel-xen. All other 32 and 64 bit kernels and 32bit kernel-xen works fine, video is ok. This happens to 6 servers, all are same hardware, used as cluster. Installation with "linix text" allways is fine, video disappears after first reboot when standart kernel is booted. I also tryed with almost all possible "vga=xxxx" kernel options and none of them works.
I have Ubuntu 9.10 dual booting with Windows7.My ext3 /home is mounted as F: in windows.I share a firefox profile between them so that when i am in Windows my firefox uses the same profile as it does when in Ubuntu.It all worked great until recently. I am unable to save files by right clicking and save as. In the config i am unable to set a directory to save to. It neer asks me where to save to. Just nothing happens. some off my book marks are all messed up as well, my rss feeds have the same post on some random website every time i log on and i have to manually refresh to get the correct feeds back. I am unable to delete the random bookmark.
my mediacenter is attached to an beamer with the optimal resolution of 1280*720 ubuntu 10.04 doesnt offer me this revolution (on my intel 915 graphis controller). this means i have to add this resolution to the possible resolutions. first i used cvt
now i can select and use the new resolution - until next reboot. after an reboot 1280x720 is again not available. even if i work with sudo - the resolution isnt there....
I want to change fps of subtitles.I have one program in Windows(subtitleworkshop) but it's not working exactly.Now I'm interesting is it possible change fps of subtitles in Linux? Has any program in Ubuntu?
I'm trying to play idx/sub subtitles with an avi movie. I have previously used these on Windows, but no clue how to use them in Ubuntu. I know I can convert them to srt, but that requires OCR which (from experience) makes a bunch of mistakes, so I don't want that. So far I've tried Totem and Gnome MPlayer. Is there any way to achieve this?
Before I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10, VLC media player was able to play my .mkv files just fine. Then I upgraded and VLC refused to play them with sound so I switched to Banshee media player. There is an option in VLC to disable subtitles, but I can't do that in Banshee.
i recently got my hands on a movie and it came with the subtitles file, but it's in .sup format, which by the looks of it, is not supported in mplayer or vlc. i've looked online, and this seems to be the only format the subtitles come in. is there any successful conversion program to where i can convert them to .ssa?
I would like to see two subtitles in the same video, one in my language and another in english, to learn the other language. At windows I was using BsPlayer, but in Ubuntu I don't know any that does it. Do you know any?
I recently acquired a few japanese anime which have English subtitles. All the videos are in .mp4 format. They have embedded subtitles (though not hardsubbed, since I can turn them off). My question is how do I edit and re-embed these subtitles, since the translations are less-than-perfect?
using any software(totem/vlc/mplayer/heck, i'd download a new one if it had this capability) make subtitles appear in the bottom black bar that exist due to video being 16:9 on my 4:3 monitor and not on top of the film leaving all of that black bar real-estate wasted?
I am looking for a subtitle player, that would show subtitles on the screen. For example, when i watch a video in ..... (music video..) it would display independatly the text (so I can have a karaoke music video)Does software like this exist?
