Positioning Subtitles in Black Letterbox Area [Again!]

[DobraGolonka]

Hi All

Apologies if this is an old chestnut, but how do I position subtitles in the black letterbox area? I have looked through every page in this Forum (all 82 of them!) and used search, but to no avail :( , and I'm hoping someone can at least point me in the right direction, before I suffer complete hair loss!

I am creating a SVCD by Frame Serving from AVISynth into TMPGEnc, using the following script:

...
LoadPlugin(FilterDir + "VSFilter.dll")
...
video = AVISource("avi_file.avi", FALSE)
audio = WAVSource("wav_file.wav")
clip = AudioDub(video, audio).TextSub("sub_file.ssa")
...
Do some FPS Conversion here
...
AddBorders(...)

Everything is ok except that the Subtitles are appearing in the 'image' area, and not the 'border' area.

Whilst perusing, I have come across such phrases as 'Vobsub' (downloaded, installed, no joy) and 'MPC' (which I think is just a PC viewer?).

I am sure I am tantalisingly close to the answer, but I am now suffering complete word-blindness, so I can't see the wood from the trees!

Please, please help!

Many thnaks in advance.

I've managed to stumble acroos the answer myself:

I had the AddBorders function in the wrong place ie after the FPS conversion - I simply added as <conversion functions>.AddBorders(...)
and now all is peachey!

And SubResync does work - I've been re-positioning my subs all afternoon!
