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 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'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 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?
I got a problem with gnome-subtitles when I try to sync an srt file with an mkv file: no sound available, whereas in the case of an avi file no problem of course. Did you experiment the same problem and find a workaround?
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 recently been tasked to extract the subtitles from a lot of mkv files. Hundreds of them, maybe even more than a thousand. To do this, I modified a script I found online:
#!/bin/bash IFS="|" if test -z $1; then
[Code].....
So in the above example the subtitle is actually in track number one and my script would be borked for that particular file. Is there a way to integrate mkvinfo into the script and parse it to see what track should be extracted? Like, read it line-by-line and change the value of some #TRACKNO variable everytime a string like "| + Track number:" appears, and stop when a string like "| + Track type: subtitles" appears? Maybe even skip doing anything if there aren't any subtitles.
PS: I actually prefer SRT subtitles to ***. If there was some command line tool I could use to convert the resulting *** file to SRT I would be much obliged.
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 use divxenc 1.4.6 to create AVI files. Works great. Recently, I started using the option to subsequently convert that to MKV, so I can include multiple subtitles inside the file. Unfortuately, the subtitles show up much to high in the picture. In the AVI format, the subs are just above the bottom of the image. But in the MKV here they appear at about 1/3 up from the bottom. This behaviour shows in both Mplayer for Linux and VLC for Windows. So I guess it's in the file. Is there an updated version of divxenc, or another tool to generate MKV's directly ?
Doing this: mplayer dvd://1 -v -dumpstream -dumpfile dump.vob Gives me all the audio tracks, but not the subtitles. How can I go about getting the subtitles to be included in the file dump.vob? I've tried something like: mplayer dvd://1 -v -sid 5 -dumpstream -dumpfile dump.vob (where -sid 5 was the correct subtitle) but this does not work. I'm going to use mencoder to make an .avi file (with subtiutles, obviously), so I could, as a last resort, use some other program that extracts the subtitles (suggestions?).
I'm using Kaffeine 1.0-svn3 from Packman repo on openSuse 11.2 with KDE 4.3.5. In Kaffeine, I can not find the menu where I can choose the subtitles. (I want to watch an avi-file with a separate subtitle-file in srt format). With openSuse 11.0, KDE 3.5.8. and an older version of Kaffeine, there was a possibility to select subtitle files (srt).
I'm using openSUSE 11.3 for my laptop and Kaffeine built in as my player. But when I tried to play any files with external subtitles, there is nothing happened. The drop-down list of subtitles is just gray and cannot be used.
So I have two questions: (1) Can Kaffeine built in openSUSE 11.3 load subtitles automatically? (2) If it cannot, how to load subtitles manually?
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 cant play mp4 files with dual audio and dual subtitles. I am using a laptop with intel graphics. I've already tried mplayer, vlc, and smplayer. But still the files wont play properly. I been jumping all over the forums reading and trying anything i come up to. What do I need to do? oh btw I am using Ubuntu 10.04.
trying to convert a avi file with subtitles into a iso file ready for burning on to a disc, I am using DeVeDe to convert the file but I keep getting the error SPUMUX when trying to convert. I have no idea on what to do with this, is it because I am trying to convert to ISO? should I just try to convert to MPEG instead would that stop the error?
i've looked at serveral post all over the net but still can't get subtitles (.str files) to bind with the stream on mediatomb.
Mediatomb works fine with out the subtitle transcoding profile, but when added and mediatomb is restarted using sudo /etc/init.d/mediatomb restart I get the response "Fail" and Mediatomb will not start. If I change <transcoding enabled="yes"> to "no" then mediatomb works fine
Below is my config.xml

I am having great difficulty viewing a series of educational videos (MMS streams) in Ubuntu 10.04, which view perfectly in Windows XP. All I get is a black screen. No matter whether I use Firefox or Chrome or Opera, No matter whether with MPlayer, Totem or VLC.
I have tried everything I could find by googling (basically trying different media players and plugins) but nothing works. This is my final attempt! Anyone have any ideas, or similar problems?
I have just bought an LG Infinia 42LE8900 Tv. It has a LAN port and has a built in capability to search and display media on the LAN.
I have a PC running Ubuntu 10.10 that I store all my media on and is kept on perminently for that purpose.
When using the Tv, I can not find this or any of the PCs or Laptops running Ubuntu. It can find a Windows 7 virtual machine, but that is not used for media and nor does it have any media within it.
Does anyone know how to make the Ubuntu media visible to the Tv? Seems everything is geared to Microsoft.
Ubuntu 10.10, Acer Aspire One D255 I have been searching for a webcam program to work as Cheese did not (See: [URL]). I found GUVC (A review of it here: [URL]). So, I downloaded it from the Ubuntu Software Center and it runs GREAT! Here is the odd problem: It does not display the control panel to start recording. This would normally be at the bottom of each section from what I can tell.
