I'm not sure this is the right forum. Don't know if this belongs here or in the subtitles section. I thought here, because I think it has to do with authoring and not subtitles. Please move it, if it's in the wrong place.

I've gotten into miniDVD authoring for fun. (Don't have a DVD burner.) So I've been working on this for for 2 days now. (Today, pretty much all I did.) I finally figured out a lot of the abilities in DVDMaestro, including how to get the right colors to display.

My problem is, when I load the subtitles, they go off the screen.
I get this (http://www.ravensgarage.com/~leonsite/images/PDVD_007.jpg). Everything I try keeps giving me this. Setting it to 720x480, 352x480, or just using the original cropped subs. Could this possibly be because I'm doing half DVD resolution? (352x480) I'm trying to fit several episodes on one CD-R, like I would if I did them SVCD. (At least this way it looks better, with the cool menus I'm making. :) )

Thanks for your help in advanced.

This is normal if u rip your subs to full resolution and u r authoring to half, u will get them to show like this when u playback on your computer.

However if u play the minidvd on a standalone that supports minidvd, everything will fit to place.
