Hi
There is some ways to fade in and fade out or wipe the subtitles.
I want to know what I must add to my .SST for this reason ?

Maybe with SSA script or USF, but I'm not sur....Check the specs ;) here (http://moodub.free.fr/ass-specs.doc) and here (http://cvs.corecodec.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/usf/specs/USF_V100-LAST.txt) :)

you guys have't seen subtitle like I said before ? that's the point ..like kurtnoise, said if it were about ASS or USF yes, but SST? (i know it only as some weirdo format for picture subs and as such doesnt interest me :p)

ASS: animation tag (was it \t ?), with alpha color fade inside each sub you want to fade
USF: define a effect, KF 0% color #00RRGGBB, KF 100% color #FFRRGGBB and apply that effect to the subtitle(s)

Yeah , it uses USF method
But you could't get what I said about SST.
SST is kind of a file. SST is subtitle list that imports to Scenarist.
You get it ?
Now I want to know what I should add to top of SST file , to get this result ?

Thanks in advance

i highly doubt DVDs allow fading subtitles. But i just don't know for sure (like i said: not my area of interest) ..i simply never saw fading DVD subtitles, or anyone talking about it.

In DVD Maestro, they have a FadeIn and FadeOut box by the subtitle bitmaps. You enter in the number of frame in the appropriate box, and it fades in and/or out really nicely. Never saw such an option anywhere else.

Maestro's stl format supports fade-in/out of subtitles. Open the stl file in notepad and fill in the relative points

Pleaseeeeee help me

stl format is readable and applicable in Scenarist too. Just insert the stl file as usual. It isn't that hard:)

Ok thanks man.
But becase I don't have DVDMaestro , could you please send me a sample STL file , that has (for example) 10 subtitles, and each of them is fade in and fade out ?
I would be very appriciate it.
If you need to send to my email , it is : m_golara@yahoo.com

Thanks in advance
I am really waiting for it:D

I will as soon as I will get home, but actually u don't need my sample. Subrip can convert to stl a srt file. U can have your sample from there.:)

Hi
Thanks
I did rip from subrip to STL file.
But becuse I hadn't the command for fading subtitles , the result in DVD wasn't fading.
In fact what I need is the command (or commands) for this.
Thanks in advance and I am waiting for your sample

I thought I had answered this a little while ago.

Go to Documentation in the Scenarist folder and open the pdf that is named Procedure, in the section 8.2 u will read various effects that u can do with subpictures.

Guide to the STL format (Maestro-specific, so I suspect some features are not supported by Scenarist):

http://www.geocities.com/McPoodle43/DVDMaestro/stl_format.html

Example of how to fade in and out a specific subtitle (5-frame fade each way, which is taken out of the total display time):

00:00:01:30 , 00:00:11:12 , Subtitle without fades.
$FadeIn = 5
$FadeOut = 5
00:01:00:00 , 00:01:22:10 , Subtitle with fades.
$FadeIn = 0
$FadeOut = 0
00:02:01:30 , 00:02:11:12 , Subtitle without fades.
