importing SST sub's into scenarist

[ArieBK]

hi.

i have an SST file looks as :

st_format 2
Display_Start non_forced
TV_Type PAL
Tape_Type NON_DROP

Directory .
#####################################################
SP_NUMBER START END FILE_NAME
1 00:00:09:60 00:00:12:00 xcxcxcxc
2 00:00:12:00 00:00:15:60 xcxcxcxcx
3 00:00:19:16 00:00:28:76 xcxcxcxcx
4 00:01:09:52 00:01:10:72 xcxcxcxcxc

as you can see, the subs are in the file! and not pointed from the file to a BMP.

is it posible to import it to scenarist ?

i get an error when i try to do that.

TV_Type PAL
Tape_Type NON_DROP
Base_Time 00:00:00:00

Directory ...........

SP_NUMBER START END FILE_NAME

1 00:00:09:60 00:00:12:00 xcxcxcxc

3 00:00:19:16 00:00:28:76 xcxcxcxcx

allso, i allso tryed another way, You can see it here (http://doom9.org/mpg/ccguide.htm)
looks like it's working, but it revers my subs i.e :

original : aaa bbb ccc ddd

after converting : ddd ccc bbb aaa

lets get something straight...
After the out TC in your sst file u must have the apropriate BMP,Tif, or any other picture file in dimensions 720x576 for PAL. for e.g

st_format 2

TV_Type PAL
Tape_Type NON_DROP
Base_Time 00:00:00:00
Display_Start non_forced

Directory x:\...

SP_NUMBER START END FILE_NAME

1 00:00:09:60 00:00:12:00 Test0001.bmp
2 00:00:12:00 00:00:15:60 Test0002.bmp
3 00:00:19:16 00:00:28:76 Test0003.bmp
4 00:01:09:52 00:01:10:72 Test0004.bmp
and going on...

Scenarist can only work with Pictures as subtitles.

and then u must also check ur colors...for E1,E2,P and BG.

let me know...

i know that.

well i found a way ...

i have a ".sub" file Only text , no BMP's

but @ the link i post b4 there is a way to convert the txt file into BMP's and the correct script to import by scenarist.

I was going to reply that you could use my guide to learn how to convert it to bmps, but I see you already found it :)
