Two Towers Missing Subs, adding manually didn't work

[Chubmeister]

After importing scenaid script into scenarist I notice I didn't get all my subs from the two towers extended edition (disks 1 or 2). There are 5 sets, main movie and 4 for the directors/cast, etc comments.

I manually added the subs and compiled but only the main movie subs work, any ideas? Here are some things I noticed...

doif4u 1.4.5 beta, scenaid 0.9.0.5 (duplicate pgcs auto deselected, although I had to cancel pgc09 and select pgc01 otherwise I would only have got 0x86 audio when pgc01 contains all the audio channels - might wanna take a look at that if you get a copy Eye's, but worked a treat after that using scenaid, thanks guys).

The ripped subs all have a forced and a non forced, tried both ways round, did't seem to make any difference, however...

Vobsub PGC was checked, but +CC wasn't in DOIF4U, is that the problem?

thanks folks

I got this same problem when I backed up the DVDs. The subs are there and working, it's just that they aren't showing up. For some reason the opacity setting was wrong and I had to change that in Scenarist. There might be an easier way to do this but what I did was select my substream in the track editor, then go to "Tools-->Change Color..." One of the Display Colors should be set to 100% instead of 0% (I can't remember which off the top of my head but play around with it and you should be able to preview it when it's working correctly in the Scenarist preview window).

Hope this answered your question.

Whoa, how the heck did you come up with that?

Gonna get on it right away, thanks Eon :)

Eon I guess you had the substreams present in the track window since you were able to select it. I'm facing something similar (?), ie missing subtitles, but in my case they don't exist in the assets (data) also (mumbling...) :confused:

@ t610425: Why don't you just manually rip the subs and import them into Scenarist then?

[Chubmeister]

All sorted, thanks Eon. I set the colors to the same as the main movie subs (dont know why they were different), tried them in the simulation before compiling.

They all display as normal now, much appreciated.


Takis...

I noticed that the subs (from this DVD anyhow) didn't import into the assets in scenarist either, BUT they were ripped to the HD (so no need to rip manually), you will just have to import manually (see the scenarist guides on how to, really simple to do)

Cheers ears

Hi man!

I had the same problem once and I found the solution to my probleme here: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=56960 The subtitles were there but they were transparent. Good luck!

Thanks Smut, I did find that post which is very useful, but actually I think my issue was simply down to scenaid as there is an issue with PAL subs and it sounds like D7s3 is very close to putting out a fix for this.

Until the scenaid fix for us PALies its an easy manual jig in scenarist, now that we're aware of it.

thanks all for responces.
