I used srt2sup to convert .srt file to .sup file.
The subtile letters are all white as text with transparent background.
However, when I use MUXMAN to author the DVD the subtitle is "red" in text's color.
What did i do wrong?
help.

The subtitle text is based off the palette that is written into muxman. When the subtitle is displayed it accesses part of the palette that is written into the .IFO file. So if the sup file tells the player that line#4 of the .IFO file is the correct colour for this subtitle then that is the colour that will be displayed.
I would create your project in muxman. Export the mxp file. You will see the very first thing in the script is the palette.
Now, 2 ways to correct.
1) Assuming you want white text then change every entry to 255,255,255. This will mean that whatever line of the palette in the .IFO is accessed the output will always be white.
2) Change the palette to match the palette of the original disc .IFO.
