[NBLUG/talk] Combining .avi and .srt

[Jippen]

media player classic for windows also handles separate subtitle files.
If you want to put them in the video themselves, you eigther have to
A: use something like transcode to hard-overlay the video with the
subtitles. They can't be removed. or
B: use a program to make an OGM or MKV file... that supports
subtitles. However, then you would need something like VLC or Media
Player Classic on windows to play it anyway. WMP, even with filters,
is very clunky when it comes to MKV and OGM files.
