AVIAddXSubs is a simple free program to incorporate subtitles (XSUB) from .srt (ANSI text, up to 8 srt) or idx/sub (containing up to 8 subtitles) quickly and easily to your avi files containing DivX/XVid video streams. Just place the avi and its associated (same name) srt in the same directory and Drag&Drop the avi on AVIAddXSubs icon or shortcut in your desktop. In 2-3 minutes a new file with divx extension will be created and be ready to play in your hardware DivX player.
For example from the files:
lost0318.avi
lost0318.srt
you get
lost0318.divx, to play in your hardware DivX player.
To see the subtitles you have to activate them through your remote control much like you do with normal DVD. Check the configuration page of the program for the offered options. Maybe you have to put a smaller number at "Vertical Position" field if subtitles are selectable, are selected, but do not appear. The generated file is a regular avi and you can rename it if this helps the player.
What's New in version 7.4:
- Added option "Delete original avi". When the subtitled file is successfully generated the original (source) avi is deleted.
- "Stop" button added. In case of a lengthy operation, with many files involved, user can stop it at any time through this button.
- New utility added to distribution zip. SUBRenamer. Renames avi and srt/idx/sub files according user whished new name and AVIAddXSubs rules. Especially useful when more than one srt is used in subtitle incorporation. Read more about this utility in README.htm in zip.
- A fix is made to solve some display problems (in program's fields, not in subtitles) with languages like Chinese, Thai etc.
