SubRip Guide

Download SubRip

 

Open SubRip select the VOB button in the top right hand corner.

 
Software Section
 


'Open IFO'
Browse to ripped folder, open IFO file..

Select desired 'Language stream' from the drop down box.

 

Select 'Start'

Now for the tricky section... What is required for you part is to type in the charactures, first characture for my part is the letter A (as shown above) which needs to be typed in. Each time you type in a characture SubRip rembembers the characture, so usually you will need to type that characture once.

 

If SubRip selects two charactures during the process, simpilally type in the two charactures (as shown above).

 

If charactures that don't occur on the keyboard such as ©, ½ etc, select the 'Characture Map' and search for correct characture.

 

Some problems can occur such as the percent characture(%) , SubRip may only select ° of the percent characture, so what I do is type in % for the SubRip ° selection, then just click 'OK' for the other sections of %.

When finished go to Corrections>Post OCR Spelling Correction, in the bottom window.

 

Select your desired language click 'Correct!'.

 

Go to Output Format>Set Output Format

 

Highlight 'SubRip (*.srt)' click 'Convert to this Format'.

 

In the top window go to Characture Matrix>Save Characture Matrixs File

This saves the DVD subtitle charctures in SubRips ChMatrix folder, so when doing another DVD, you can check if you have already saved the DVD subtitle charactures, by selecting 'Search for an existing Matrix that match for this Characture'

Finally in the bottom window go to File>Save As and save in your ripped folder.

 

It is usually a good idea to check the spelling, open the saved subrip file with notepad, and copy and paste all into a program that supports spelling checks eg Microsoft Word or OpenOffice.

 

Now once you have completed your video backup, make sure subrip file in the same folder and same name as the backup video, or create a folder in your harddrive called subtitles eg C:\subtitles.

When burning video file on CD, include the subtitle file.

Splitting The Subtitle file

If you need to spit the video file such as if you used the x2 CD AVI Guide, First go back and complete the x2 CD AVI Guide, you need the completed avi files.

In the lower text window go to Output Format>Split Output File
A new window will appear

Tick Split Output File:
Click OpenAVI
Browse to the ripped folder and select the first avi file

Subrip will then automatically split the subtitle file.
