Subtitles are:
1. English (hearing impaired)
2. Greek
3. English Titles (elves translation, etc, only 20 bmps - first at 7 mins in).
It's only the 3rd stream that's a problem. I try to select it when the subtitles box comes up and get access violation, but it is selected.
Subtitles are extracted seemingly normally, but the bitmaps are all black when you look at them, but they do differ in size (but do not match the dimensions they would be if extracted properly).
Anyway, I used SubRip to extract the subtitles as bitmaps (and it took a while to get them looking how I like them, damn learning curve). I copied these over the DVD2SVCD bitmaps (with correct filenames) and used crash recovery (I had cancelled DVD2SVCD after video encoding had started).
All is fine and dandy until the first subtitle should be inserted, then all that's encoded for the rest of the film is an access violation error.
I used subrip to get an srt file, then converted it so ssa. I opened the avs in virtualdub and am frameserving from there to CCE, with the subtitler filter enabled. I initially cancelled the encode after the first 8 mins and the first subtitle was displayed as it should be. So all should be well.
Anyway, is this just a one off case? Are there other ways around it?
Thanks :)
