OS X :: Submerge Will Not Merge Subtitles To Some Movies
Mar 20, 2010
I've been using Submerge for a while to merge subtitles to some movies. It's been working fine. But today I got a problem. I tried several times, with different movies, to merge subtitles, but it wouldn't work. The software renders the subtitles, I can watch it with Submerge, but when I try to export it as a flatten movie or mpeg4, the subtitles are not there when I use the file in my DivX Compatible DVD Player. It was working until yesterday. In VLC they appear, but in a separated window. I've installed PEnGUIn Encoder MP4 this morning (and updated its binaries).

I've installed PEnGUIn Encoder MP4 this morning (and updated its binaries). Could it be related? Did anyone get this issue, too? What should I do? Any guesses?
i've downloaded a movie from iTunes as .m4v and i'd like to run it on Submerge to add the subtitle cuz my english isn't great .. but it won't run and submerge is the app I trust for subtitles. any idea or advice how can i run it there or how can i add the subtitle to the movie?
how do i get subtitles on my downloaded movies. Most of the movies are .AVI-files. Which program do I need and where can I find the subtitles I'm looking for.
I just downloaded iSubtitle, having seen it advertised on Apple's website...I bought it thinking it would be a good way to add external .SRT files to my iTunes purchased movies as my GF is Chinese and we like to watch movies together...fail...it is actually a brilliant little piece of software and it works wonderfully with any other kind of movie file apart from DRM encoded iTunes movies.
So what are my options? Is there a way to remove DRM from iTunes downloaded movies? Should I go back to buying physical DVD's and ripping them with Handbrake? Apple have really pissed me off here for the first time...It's not like I'm wanting to do anything illegal here, just watch iTunes purchased movies with my GF using subtitles that Apple are stupidly not offering in the first place.
I've been having troubles with my macbook CD drive lately, and this new problem is very annoying. When watching a CD movie, no matter what I do subtitles are displayed. It's not a foreign movie either. I go to the menu and select subtitles off, but still they're displayed once I hit play.
All the movies that now have subtitles, didn't use to. I've been playing movies on here for three years and suddenly everything has subtitles turned on and I cannot turn them off.
I have been trying to burn a DVD with iDVD with DVD player selectable subtitles and every time I burn a disc the subtitles are removed. The files I am adding to iDVD are mp4 with external .srt subtitles added to them via a re-encode with handbreak. Is there any way to preserve the subtitles and make them selectable on a DVD player?
I have an HD MOV file I'd like to burn to a DVD with subtitles. I made a DVD in iDVD but obviously iDVD doesn't support .srt. I had the idea of replacing the separate episodes (I'm burning a series) with my own VOB files I made with different software. That way I could have my soft subtitles. But FFMPEGX won't work; I've tried nearly everything but there's this huge problem with the framerate which makes it basically unwatchable. Note that I live in Europe so this DVD should be PAL. The files have 23.98 FPS and I need to go to 25 for it to work in a DVD player. What's the best software for this kind of thing?
I have two avi files on my mac that have swedish subs. Also the full length movie is split in two avi's. How can I remove the subs and join the two files?
I have a very old foreign film I need to burn onto a DVD. Right now it's in two parts - a first part .avi and a second part .avi. The subtitles are .srt for the first part and .sub for the second part (so four files altogether with two video files and two subtitle files).
I have a PS3 that can read computer type files and has worked for other movies and things I've burned onto DVDs and even CDs, but apparently it won't show the subtitles in these files so I need to convert it or something. I am trying in iDVD but it's not letting me put the .srt or .sub files in there.
What is the easiest way to do this? I'm not very technically proficient, so please use layman's terms.
I want to rip subtitles from some Chinese tv series. There are anywhere from 10-20 episodes on each dvd. I only want the subtitles. Is there mac software that can do this? I have a G4 mac with leopard os.
I have a .avi file, but it has subtitles. Im on a mac 10.4.11, so how do I remove the subtitles from the video??? Like what application should I get to use to remove the subtitles?
I'm having some trouble embedding subtitles and converting the files into one single avi movie. I'm streaming the movies to my Xbox 360, so it has to be one single file, and avi (or MP4, i think that works too).
I've tried Submerge, but i keep getting an error when i try to export to avi.
It'll only convert into .mov, and it takes forever to convert the .mov file into .avi.
I downloaded a movie (had to because I can't get it where I live, Waltz with Bashir) I knew it was in a different language but I didn't expect there to be no subtitles, so I found a site that had them but now I don't know how to add them, they are in the same folder as the movie, but if I go to Quicktime it says there are no subtitles.
I've got quicktime pro installed and I have perian. For some reason, everytime I go to View and Subtitles, it says something like turned off ( I am Dutch, so I dont know what it says in english). De color of the text is grey like this, so it is unclickable.
I have some DVDs that have multi subtitle. I wanna watch the movies with two subtitle at the same time! I try snow leopard's DVD player and it cant do this and VLC too. Is there any application to do this? Cyberlink DVD player can do in windows but in Mac?
I love AirPlay. I use it on my iPod Touch the moment I get home to play music to my speakers connected via AirPort Express. I use it on my iPad too when i'm watching a movie..
Even on my MBP when listening to music from iTunes. But Movies in iTunes don't work. The AirPlay icon in a movie playing in iTunes only shows "computer" and doesn't show any other options.
I have a movie file in .avi format and a subtitle file in .sfv format, and I would like to burn the subtitled movie onto a DVD using Toast Titanium. I've discovered that simply dragging both files onto the disk won't work - Toast rejects the .sfv file.
There obviously has to be a simple (?) way of combining the two files, but it's proved surprisingly difficult to find out how, so I'd be grateful for any guidance.
I just bought Final Cut PRO and I'm using DVD Studio PRO. I wanted to make some good DVD for my cousins wedding but the files are .AVI and I can't put them in. I can't believe that such a expensive program doesn't support this format. So, my question is, can I put AVI files on DVD Studio PRO including subtitles?
I just bought MBP and this software, and I am dissapointed in battery life, and now I'm also dissapointed with this software.
I followed the directions on this website:[IRL] It didn't play in my DVD player because they say to burn it as a data disc. I dont know that if I used the Video TS option that subtitles will still work.
Why I cannot purchase videos with an English subtitles? I always stuck on movies which I want see on my iPad there are not much an English subtitles for Hard of Hearing and Deaf people?
My Tv read Only subtitles that are UTF8 (in order to watch Hebrew subtitles). Until today, I had also a pc and it worked just find there. When I do it on my MacBook (in TextEdit or textWrangler) it shows gibrish. For sure I encode the srt file to UTF8 but still gibrish subtitles? Does any one know a UTF8 validator so I can double check my files?
Info: MacBook, Mac OS X (10.6.8), Been tested also on MacBook Air Lio
I had a bunch of movies that took with my digital camera that were always imported into iPhoto when I transferred my pictures into it. I used to just be able to click on them in iPhoto and the movie would open up and play. Now it seems that my movies are gone and all that I have of my movies is the first frame as a picture and nothing else. Their file extensions used to say .mov but now are .jpg. I've tried changing the extension back to .mov but no movie is there and the file sizes are not what a movie should be. I'm running Snow Leopard on a 13" Macbook Pro with newest version of iPhoto. I have quicktime X and Quicktime 7 installed.
With the advent of the PS3 getting Divx subtitle support in it's latest firmware revision, I'm trying to encode a Divx file to add subtitles. I can't for the life of me find a Mac application that will add a subtitle stream to a Divx file - usually this results in the creation of a .divx file. (.divx file containers support multiple audio and subtitle stream, and that is the format the PS3 requires the file to be in to play back the subtitles).
I do not want to "burn in" the subtitles to the video stream as this would require transcoding the video, which I do not want to do (time consuming, and can ruin a perfectly good encode). I've found the following programs for Windows, but can't seem to find a Mac equivalent: http://www.calcitapp.com/AVIAddXSubs.php http://www.trustfm.net/divx/SoftwareAviSub.php?b2=1 http://userxp.tripod.com/sub2divx.htm
As you can see by those bits of software, they simply take the avi file, the srt file and combines them into a .divx file with no transcoding. Has anyone got a similar solution for the mac world? I tried using the AVIAddXSubs via Darwine but it didn't seem to work.
I have a .AVI movie that is in spanish, I am wondering what software is there if ANY to add and create subtitles......also does it translate for you? the problem is I dont speak spanish but I really want to watch this movie
I know that VisualHub is no more, but I still use it to transcode stuff for my Apple TV. I have an mkv file with embedded subtitles (not hard coded) which I can turn on or off in VLC, however I want to hard code them into the movie, so I go through the transcoding process and it ignores the subtitles. Does anyone know how I can get VisualHub to hard code the subs on the output movie? As I'm probably barking up the wrong tree now VisualHub is no longer, could someone point me in the right direction of an easy way to do this? I'd rather not use Handbrake as I don't get as good results (dropped frames, and choppy video) as I do when I use VH.
