If this is not the right place for this post, let me know where I should move it to.

I currently have a lot of old TV shows on multiple discs without any subtitles. It has gotten to the point where my wife needs them. Can I do this?

I would like to rip the DVDs into individual episodes with MakeMKV and then use Handbrake to add subtitles I can find on the internet to each episode.

I know that BD Rebuilder can import MKV files. I would like it to then import whatever number of episodes would fit on a BD-R (probably about 10 per disk) and then create a BD out of these. I don't care about elaborate menus, and I will not save any "extras." I would use the "quick play" option and make just a single list of episodes so I can go to the episode I want.

Will this work? Any obvious pitfalls I'm not thinking of???

Thanks.

The easiest way to do this is multiAVCHD, that does everything you need without thousands of conversions and stuff - of course, as long as you have the SRTs and the VOBs (not other formats)

Yes, it will work.

Thanks for the quick replies. I'll play around with both methods (I've used multiAVCHD before as well but am not always enamored with the results), and see which one works better and easier for what I want to do.

If you give the .SRT files the same name (except the extension) as an .MKV file, BD-RB will import them together. The SRT will be converted to a PGS (Blu-Ray subtitles) during the import.

Thanks. I'll give it a try.
