currently, i am using Avisubdetector to extract the subtitles from my movie files, but it would be a bit tedious to type in the all words in the popup box that appears throughout the process. i heard from a friend that OCR can help speed up the process, but what exactly is OCR anyway? and how do i use this OCR method? thanks in advance for all the help.
