Subtitle Size
I am remuxing a dvd using rempeg2 and I want to keep the subtitles. I usually use the DVD Calculator from this website. I entered the all of the fields into the calculator, but I'm unsure of the size of the subtitles (since they're stripped from the vobs). I used subrip to extract them from the vobs and have a folder full of bitmaps, the I-author text file, and the s3conv file. The bitmaps weigh in at 261 MB. The scenarist file is a measley 860 kb. I used smartrippper to extract the rawsub and that is 2.13 MB. Which size should I use? I want to keep the highest bitrate possible. I am guessing that I should use the rawsub size. Someone please let me know if I am wrong. Thanks

From my experince, subs usually take only 20-30 megs. I would use the scenarist number to calculate your dvd. However, i think you should also leave an extra 70 megs for dvd info get added after remuxing.
For example: m2v file = 3.87 gigs ac3 file = .4 gigs sub = 30 megs dvd = info 70 megs total is 4.37 gigs. I use scenarist to remux. but i guess these numbers are also good for rempeg. |

Well, yeah I use Scenarist to remux the m2v that I get with rempeg2. It is almost halfway done so I'm going to just let it finish and I'll find out the hard way. Thanks for your help though.
