Hi there...
Ive got this problem:
i own the region 4 of men in black I which is a collection edition, which includes about 7 subs and a closed captioned subs. The thing is that I want to use the CC as subs to make my svcd backup (as english language of course)but the thing is that when i select the suppossed subtitle (0x88 i think so), it shows only the siluet of the comentators of the movie (tommy lee and the director are the comentators of the movieso those are their siluet)but there arent the CC subs!!! HOW can i find and use the CC SUBS to add them to my svcd??

Another doubt: do you know if there isnt yet any program that play svcds correctly(with the subs and the audio tracks)?

Thanx for the help

The best program for extracting closed captions from a DVD is VSRip by Gabest. This (http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/guliverkli/VSRip_20030530.zip?download) is the current link to download it, but for anyone reading this post in the future, you should go here (http://sourceforge.net/projects/guliverkli/) and find the link on that page for VSRip to get the latest version.

Anyway, when you run the program, it will convert the closed captions to SubRip format. Closed captions have some funny characters that are converted into question mark characters for the SubRip output (especially the musical note character, used to indicate that the line is sung), so you should look over the output file before you use it.
