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?
View 3 Repliestrying 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?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'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?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI 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?).

(2) If it cannot, how to load subtitles manually?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am sitting on over a hundred Disney and other kid's VHS tapes we still have around from when our kids were little. My granddaughter has found them and finds them fantastically entertaining but VHS isn't exactly hardy for a 4 year old to handle. I'm looking to convert them to DVD for both backup and space savings. Cinderella has already bit the dust and I'm paying dearly for it. I have done some research and every bit of information assumes that I would have an idea of what I'm doing.
I do own a DVR but most of them won't copy for copy protect reasons. As far as I can tell the only way I can convert them is by going from analog VHS to digital DVD. Now, I have no clue how to do this nor what hardware I would need if any to do this.
I'm trying to make a copy of my Blu-Ray movies on DVD-R so I can play them on my DVD player. The movies have been ripped to my HDD and the HD audio extracted. So I'm left with one video stream and one audio stream (either DTS or AC3) in a single m2ts file. I've tried to use mencoder with the same command that I use to convert DVB HD broadcasts to DVD compliant mpeg files as so:
Code:
mencoder -oac copy -ovc lavc -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd:tsaf -vf scale=720:576,harddup -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg2video:vrc_buf_size=1835:vrc_maxrate=9800:vbitrate=4500:keyint=15:vstrict=0:aspect=16/9 -ofps 25 -o newfile.mpg 00520.m2ts
[Code]...
Is there something wrong with my mencoder command, or is there perhaps a better way of attacking this. I've spent a fair bit of time looking for a solution to this and there seems to very little information around. I would have thought this would be quite a common thing to try and do?

I have a video on DVD disk. It is split into 4 parts with file extension VOB. The total time is ~90 mins. In the fourth part I need just the 4:53 first minutes.
I would like to append the 3 parts and the 4:53 first minutes of the fourth part together without lessening the quality and to convert them into AVI.
How can I do it?
