Hmm.

But a hardsubbed file has the subtitles embedded in the video... :headscratch:

That's queer. :sweat:

I know, that's why I didn't think it'd be a problem using Nero. When I burned 200 Pound beauty for Eve on my mac, I assumed the same and it worked fine. I wonder what went wrong with Nero...

O well, at least I know I won't be using that application (for PC). I'll find a way if a keep hunting. Right now I have ff waiting to be used.

Do you have another burning problem aside form Nero that you can try?

Or can you try burning the same file using your Mac?

I'm gonna try burning the same drama on my mac and see if the subs still don't work. Thanks for the tip!

Sure thing, kiddo. :muack:

Alternately, you might try to burn the file that worked on your Mac on the PC. :)

Isn't that a rather personal question? :naughty: :beaten:

So what happened? :headscratch:

I haven't tried it yet, tho I will today... after I catch up here. Yesterday I installed a TV in my room with a DVD player so I can dramas on that now instead of on this computer. I can now burn stuff while watching. :victory:

I'll get back to you on this in a few hours.

I came across DVD Styler the other day... http://www.dvdstyler.de/

Looks interesting, but I haven't tried it yet.

GRRR.

Okies, so I tried FFmpegX. I finally got it to work, except the subs won't show. I followed the online guide and went to Filters and loaded the subs, but when I played the VIDEO_TS, the subs weren't available. Grr.

So now I found an "Author" button under the tools tab, so I'm gonna try that with the .mpeg file I created earlier. Hopefully it'll work this time. :fingerscrossed:

Hello!

I downloaded the Taiyou no Uta movie with softsubs, but it's in WMV format. Can WMVs be hardsubbed too? Or only AVIs?

WMV's can be hardsubbed, but to hardsub it you'll be converting it into another format anyway.

Yappari. :puppydog:

That's what I was thinking too. Sigh. I actually already like the WMV format. Thanks anyway Anime Dad. By the way, what programs do you use to hardsub? I tried a tutorial that involved Subtitle Workshop and saving the .srt sub into .ssa (Substation Alpha? Was that it?) but the result was bad. The encoded subs were far from readable. :bleh:

I don't hardsub, I use ConvertXtoDVD which lets you add softsubs and burn the result toDVD :)

Use VirtualDub and VobSub to hardsub avi files with .srt files. :)

I've used it for years and it never fails me. :victory:

What beem said. :)

He always gets excellent results too :)

Thanks for the tips!! :hug:
