Add subtitles on Avi files

November 5, 2007 · Posted in Linux · 1 Comment

A very usefull program to do that is mencoder

Lets say the subtitles file is called abc.str, the avi file without the subtitles is called abc.avi and the file we can to create is abc2.avi

So all we have to do is

x264 format

mencoder -sub abc.srt -subcp iso-8857-9 ( or whichever codepage the .srt requires ) -ovc x264 -oac copy -o abc2.avi abc.avi

xvid format

mencoder -sub abc.srt -subcp iso-8857-9 ( or whichever codepage the .srt requires ) -ovc xvid -xvidencopts bitrate=687 -oac copy -o abc2.avi abc.avi

You can see the available video outputs but using

mencoder -ovc help

This is a bug fix version

A bug was found on previous version where there was a problem with python 2.5 and programs’ command line interface. The program was tested on Gentoo linux which has python 2.4 and thats why we didnt see the problem

Distros Llike ubuntu 7.10 and Arch linux run python 2.5 so there was a major bug there

So this version just fix the bug

1) Python 2.5 compatibility
