A very basic question

[Rockas]

I got a very basic question but since I'm a beginner i'd thank you if somebody can help me.
How can i make a script that joins the xxx.avi file with the subtitle file xxx.sub so that i can use it in VirtualDub or VirtualDubMod. I herad that this way i'll be able to make a direct stream copy. Now i'm using the textsub 2.23 but it make me to use full processing mode which takes me too much time.
Can you help me?
Thank you

you wont want to use "direct stream copy" unless you want uncompressed YV12! that's probably not what you're after.

however, "fast recompress" would be good for you - it's a little faster than full processing, and doesn't require colourspace conversion (very slight blurring, and unnecessary speed hit from these - keep 'em to a minimum)

there's ways to mux the subtitles into the video stream, but i've never used them. search would be a good idea, as it's probably just what you want, otherwise the Avisynth plugin you're looking for it "vobsub" i think.
