You can use the Add button or just drag&drop a file with subtitles (DeVeDe will check if the extension is .sub, .srt, .ssa, .smi, .txt, .aqt, .jss or .ass). These will be true DVD subtitles, in the sense that you can enable or disable them, and choose the language you want. When you do that, DeVeDe will show you this window: So DeVeDe takes care of the conversion itself, apparently using mencoder. poc -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
