Add and edit subtitles : You’ll find a lot of subtitle files in all languages on http://subscene.com. You can edit the text: change the color, font, size placement, display, angle of the text (and more!) (if your subs are in .srt format)

If your subtitles are in a language with special characters (almost any language other than English actually), you may need to change the code page for correct display of the letters:

Burn to DVD or USB key: did you know you don’t need to burn your conversions straightaway? You can either burn them at any time later:

Or transfer them to USB or Cloud if you don’t want to waste a disk (and if your TV set/ DVD player supports USB keys)

Convert in PAL or NTSC: depending on where you live, your DVD player may not read the disk if it’s not encoded in the right format. Follow the guide to check you’ve selected
