Dear fellow subtitlers,
I need to encode a subtitling .srt file into an .mpg file. The .srt file comes from the tool Swift that I used back in the day when I was a student at Leeds University. I stupidly never downloaded the video with the subtitles embedded and that is why I now need to encode them in the video for professional reasons. The .srt file, however, is not like the ones you can find online for movies, but it shows also time-in and time-out captions. For example:
SUBTITLE: [1] TIMEIN: 10:00:48:16 DURATION: 05:15 TIMEOUT: 10:00:54:06
Exceptional Journey
through the Human Body.
Of course, VLC cannot read such a file. What options do I have? Is there an option on Swift that allows the use to either embed subtitles on a video and download said video as a single file or to download the subtitling file as if it were taken from any fansubbing website on the internet and use it with VLC?
Thanks a lot for any help you can provide.
