Here's an example of what I'm trying to ask:
I have an .avi(DivX) file and .txt subtitle file for that DivX.
I have converted the DivX file in a .mpeg (VCD or SVCD) file.
How can I burn-in the subtitle (.txt) in my VCD or SVCD file?
Is there a DivX-To-VCD/SVCD tool(converter) where I can input a DivX file and a subtitle file and then get a VCD/SVCD with burnt-in subtitle?

install vobsub by Gabest.
Make sure your subtitle file has the exact same name as you avi an is in the same subdirectory.
burn with tmpgenc.

the sub will load and burn automatically. I'm not sure if it will load a text file though. You may have to convert it with subtitle workshop first.

Remember to follow the forum rules. This question has been asked and answered tons of times. Doing a search of the forum is how I learned how to do it. Remember... the search key is your friend.

Maybe this will help.

When using DVD2SVCD you can convert your AVI to a SVCD or VCD and add forced (permanent) subs at once.

See my thread in DVD2SVCD Basic ...
You need to edit your avisynth.ini (or dvd2svcd.ini if you've got an older version).
There are some threads on this forum which can help you doning it this way.
This is what you need to add.



[AVISYNTH_BiCubicResize With forced subs for avi]
0=BicubicResize(^TargetWidth,^TargetHeight,^b_value,^c_value)
1=AddBorders(0,^BorderTop,0,^BorderBottom)
2=LoadPlugin("C:\Program Files\Avisynth 2.5\Plugins\Release\VSFilter.dll")
3=textsub(!file.sub)
^b_value=0.0
^c_value=0.6
!file.sub=*.srt



Ofcourse you have to edit the path!!!!! And have VSFilter.dll

In my case it only works with .srt subtitles.

Succes
