Import non-ripped .txt subs to Maestro

[cinephile]

I have film subtitles (in a text file) which I want to import into Maestro. They are in the following format in a .txt file:

{1126}{1176}I liked my old school...
{1278}{1345}Mommy...|My flowers died
{1351}{1411}No wonder, the way|you clung to them

How do I get these into Maestro, if I can? They appear to have the frame #'s and not the timecodes.
I've looked at MaestroSBT and Subrip etc. but they all expect a different source.
Also, I've done some searches but couldn't get the answer.

Could anyone be nice and help me out, or will I have to learn Japanese to watch the film. :(

TIA

Hehe ... "Spirited Away" is a great movie, isn't it? Your subs are in Subviewer format, get the excellent Subtitle Workshop (available at doom9) to convert them to something else. There are probably other solutions out there...

PS: Oh, and if you want to convert to some time-based format, you should of course enter the correct framerate.

You know your movies smiller!
Thanks for the pointer to Subtitle Workshop - I'll give it a go.
