Post title: FPS

25 FPS is the number of frames in each second of a video. It'll help if you think of a video as moving images, like in flip books. To quote myself:

For those who are not already familiar with the frames per second (FPS) measurement, this means for each second of the video, there are x number of frames. In a 24 FPS video, 1 second contains 24 frames. In a 30 FPS video, 1 second contains 30 frames. And so on, and so forth.[/quote]

You don't produce 25 FPS subtitles per se. The subtitles only use it to adjust their timing to the audio/visual cues. Working on the wrong FPS value could cause the subtitles to be out of sync. I don't know what Subtitle Framerate Changer does, but I strongly advise against using it, as it may mess up the timing entirely. Most professional-grade subtitling software should automatically detect the video FPS (and let you input the FPS value manually, if required), so you don't need to worry too much about it.

EDIT:
Didn't know that Stepan and Max already gave you solid answers in another thread. Welp.
