hi

i'm using Windows Media Center to record TV. because it's easy , free ... with a TV guide. but it create WTV file. on HD recording, the possibility to convert to DVRMS fails, even on some SD recording too (i don't know why :( ...).

anyway, i try since YEARS to extract the DVB-T subtitle stream of a WTV file and convert it to SRT. never found a way to do this. same with TS file using an another software. with software can record a TS file with subtitle stream in it and with the ability to exact the subtitle stream and convert it to SRT ?

i tried sometimes ago recording video with home theater from terratec in the TS format, and tried to use project X , but it created wrong subtitles.

i have now a aver media capture HD Card H727, with DVB-T tuner, trying again with WTV. but it fails. by browsing this forum, i found a software called videoredo TVsuite V4, who can maybe convert the subtitle or make them appearing in a video once converted, but is it really working ? because this software is very expensive for something simple i want.

i just want to record DVB-T TV, extract the subtitle stream and creating a MKV video with the subtitle track, so i can watch it on my TV with my popcorn A200.

any idea how to do that ? thanks !

Can't the A200 play the files as recorded?
How come PjX is unable to extract subtitles?

Hi, the A200 can't play WVT file, or DVRMS file. or TS file with DVB-T subtitle.

PJX didn't succeded to extract subtitle from the DVB-T stream as it can't accept WTV or DVRMS files.

and once i convert these file in an another format, it lost the DVB-T subtitle Stream.

i tried DVB Viewer Pro sometimes ago, and the TS recorded file make a failed subtitle once converted by project X.

do you know any DVB-T recording software who create a file with DVB-T subtitle and where project X can export the subtitle Track with NO issue ? i suppose it's NOT possible to do this with the file recorded by WMC , so i need to find an another software for this. any idea ?
