Add subtitle to DVD

Can Anyone Help me I Want To Encode Blu-Ray 2D into 3D Full or Half SBS…
Any tool except DVDFab…

Hello-
I’m just finishing up a large encoding project where I’ve encoded all my DVDs to h.264 m4v files using Handbrake‘s "normal" preset. However, I’m noticing that the preset I chose doesn’t preserve the 5.1 surround sound tracks from my DVDs. For many of my DVDs I don’t particularly care about the surround sound, but for others I do care. Of course I could just start over and do it properly from within handbrake but I’ve had 5 computers working for about a week on encoding all my ripped DVDs so I’d rather avoid redoing that if I can.

Is there any way to add whatever surround sound track my DVDs have into the m4v files without reencoding the video?

If it matters, I’d like to play these files on my android phone, my wife’s iPhone, (hopefully) using the USB port on a Roku, and most importantly on three XBMC-based HTPCs. If there’s a non-free product that makes this possible or less painful, I’ll be happy to purchase it.

Thanks in advance.

Hi all,

When I put my computer to sleep, it turns on randomly throughout the night and when I turn the monitor on, its just on the lock screen. Any ideas why?

Can someone tell me what VCR’s they recommend for good tracking? I need something that doesn’t jump, show excessive lines, etc. I have a bunch of tapes recorded on a vcr I no longer have. I can’t remember, but I think they were recorded on a jvc or toshiba…I could be wrong though. These tapes are T-120 and about 5-6 hours of recorded material.

I read in another post that Sharp is best for tracking? Can anyone confirm this? If so, what models or type of sharp do you recommend?

I haven’t done anything with video for a while and I wasn’t expert when I did do stuff. Recently acquired Nero Plat and love the simplicity of burning avi files for friends. But the default is udf, rather than iso, which I see is still available. I read around to learn the difference and I think I get the gist of it. Use ISO if there’s an issue with playing the burned disc on an older player. Otherwise, the udf is just a bit better. But it seemed to me that I’m able to get about half the movies on a disc that I used to using ISO / data. Is it just me? What’s up? Thanks in advance.

this occurred yesterday too and im posting this today since it is getting really consistent.

Hello fellow enthusiasts. A brief history about me is I normally watch dvdrips streamed from my pc to my ps3. But latley feel like I’m wasting my hd tv on dvd rips. Recently picked up a "hipstreet" 16gb flash drive to put bdrips on for the ps3. I got 2 movies, Tranformers 3 already in mp4 format with a file size of 1.70 gb. This went on the usb drive no problem. The second movie was fast five in mkv format at around 6gb. Converted it using "mkv2vob" still is around 6 gb but when I tru to put it on the tumb drive it tells me disk is full. But when I check the properties on the usb drive it shows 15.5 free gb. I’ve been playing with different features of mkv2vob with little sucess. Only way I can get Fast Five on the usb is by splitting the movie in 2 parts…..which still equals out to around 6 gb.. I’m out of ideas?!?

Thanks in advance

I’ve tried this a number of ways but cannot get ffmpegX to load a set file and output video with subtitles. I’ve followed the instructions in the How-To as indicated. But it did not work.

Additionally (maybe part of the failure), I initially selected output as DVD-ffmpeg. The "How-To" said I should find a Movie directory with Video_TS and such. I only found some ff output files in my conversion directory. Once that was selected, all the "VOB" options for subtitling disappeared. I’m not sure it would matter what the output was, specifically. Before beginning encode, I checked the preview in the subtitles screen and sure enough the subtitles presented. But once output, they were not there.

I’ve read of potential subtitle strangeness with Lion’s QuickTime 10.1. QT10.1 no longer supports multi-layered video or so I’m told. So there was discussion of switching the subtitling to layer 0. But this doesn’t seem to work either. I saw carping related to Perian not working as a result of all this QT 10.1 stuff.

Finally I bought SubMerge hoping I could hard-code. I did, it looked fine in QT and VLC, but once output via Toast to DVD–subtitles gone! Amazing!

Does anybody have an idea on how to do this with ffmpeg in the simplest of situations (using an avi, set and Lion)?

It’s been a strange two days…

Hey guys, I have a Movie in MKV format that i import into Power Director 9 and then drag it into the timeline and only the video shows up in the timeline. I have other videos i import into Power Director in other formats and the audio is attached to the video when i drag them into thwe timeline but not MKV files. The MKV file works fine using VLC and Windows Media Player, both audio and video. Hope someone can help, Thanks -Mike.
