Burning downloaded anime on to DVD

[Amethyst]

I was using a program that asked me to place the .srt files to put in a separate folder to place them on the encoded video,the program worked,i converted the mkv video to avi video but the subtitles were not on there.i need to extract the subs from the video.

If what you just said is correct, the subs are already extracted from the video. That is why they are in .srt format, that is your subs. Now you need to encode the .srt subs into the .avi video.. AlltoAVI will do that, you just have to tell the program there are external subs if it doesn't automatically detect them. The newest release of TMPGEnc will also use external subs... (upgrade fee... since I don't work with external subs, really no reason to upgrade... laugh)

Ok... let me try this again... I may have misunderstood you... you do or do not have a seperate sub file? If not.. then you need to try one of the other programs (MKVextractGUI-1.5.5.zip & Wizard.zip) to seperate the avi and the subs from the mkv file.. then combine them into one with either of the programs I mentioned above.

Any mkv file I've seen has had the subs hard coded into it, it didn't have a seperate .srt or whatever file for the subs. My problem is with AllToAVI I can get it converted, but the timing is off on the avi files.... so my next project, if I need to deal with an mkv file is to try the MKV extract and Wizard and see if that helps. Or you can let me know how it goes for you!
