Hi,
now that the JW Player (4.x) does not support SRT and only supports Timed Text/ XML files, i've been surprised that more programs do not support that format. here is a php script solution in this thread http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/forum/Setup-Problems/8533/Is-.srt-subtitle-support-broken-in-3.14

Anyone know of a simple utility or method to convert a srt to Timed Text, other than coding my own PHP solution?

thanks very much!!

here is my custom exporter for subtitle workshop (2.51), if that is off any help:

[Information]
Name=JW FLV Player
Extension=*.xml
Time structure=hh:mm:ss.zz
Time=True
FPS=25
New line char=<br />

[Format text]
<tt xml:lang="sl">
<head>
<layout/>
</head>
<body>
<div xml:id="captions">
{RepeatSub}
<p begin="{swStart}" end="{swEnd}">{swText}</p>
{EndRepeat}
</div>
</body>
</tt>

save as flvplayer.cfp and drop to
\subtitleWorkshop\CustomFormats\flvplayer.cfp

Thank you... hopefully subtitle workshop will include this in their formats when (and if) they come out of beta 4 ! rg
