Video file, add subs & export to Mpeg-4 AVC

[srfscenar]

Hi all!
I need your help. I did a search but i havent found anything.

I need a utility (like VirtualDub) that can handle video files without subtitles, add Subtitles from a seperate file (e.g. srt, ssa etc.) and output a Mpeg-4 AVC file with the subtitles burned-on.

I can do it with VirtualDub, but it exports AVI files, and then i must encode them to Mpeg-4.
If a utility like the one i ask is avaliable i would jump the export from VirtualDub and save time.

Thank you all.

Thank you all.You want AviSynth.

Script sample:

DirectShowSource("filename")
TextSub("subtitlefilename")
ConvertToYV12()

Then use the encoding GUI of your choice, or x264's own CLI program, to encode from the script.

Thanx alot Shikari!
I will try it right away.
Avisynth is a DOS util right? Isnt there any GUI for Avisynth to do the job easier?
Thanx!

No, windows.

The encoding GUIs usually come with script generators.
Alternatively there is Avsp. It helps you create and preview scripts. You can find it in one of the avisynth forums here.

Avidemux (http://avidemux.berlios.de/index.html) is also worth checking out if you don't like to learn too much new stuff ;)
