There are two things I want to add to my current
intermediate DVD mpg video files created with ffmpeg, and/or
to the DVD tree structure created with DeVeDeNG:
1. Create and add a Navigation menu in the beginning
This will be an upcoming, separate topic
2. Create and add Soft Subtitles as simple text info
commentaries to the video content
This is the topic for this post.
The reason that I want *Soft* Subtitles as a separate text
file stream related to timing, is because this should be
possible to *add* or import to an existing video file
without the need to re-encode. It should also be flexible to
display on or off during playback, if I have understood this
correct so far.
IIRC you can't add text-based subtitles to DVD video. Blu-ray
yes, dvd no (both can use palletized reduced-color graphical
subtitles) ... so at least rendering text as palletized picture
and then muxing it into mpeg stream is unavoidable step,as far
as I understand.
I have prepared a new video file and will try to add sub-titles
to-morrow
http://www.g-raffa.eu/Cinelerra/HOWTO/subtitles.html#_how_to_create_soft_subtitles
There are written several articles and answers to forum topics
about adding soft subtitles to video.
My best but only partly working attempt so far, is by applying
this solution on StackOverflow:
/Use ffmpeg to add text subtitles: NOTE: This solution adds the
subtitles to the video as a separate optional (and
user-controlled) subtitle track.
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8672809/use-ffmpeg-to-add-text-subtitles
/1) First I created a DVD-video compliant MPG file with pcm audio
from DV source (as previously)
ffmpeg -hide_banner -i DV09-1993.dv -f dvd -target pal-dvd -aspect
4:3 -b:v 8M -maxrate 8M -minrate 8M -bufsize 20M -muxrate 20M -mbd
rd -trellis 1 -cmp 0 -subcmp 2 -c:a pcm_dvd DV09-1993.mpg
2) Created the attached srt subtitle file:
DVD-09-1993_subtitle.srt
3) Added (muxed) the soft, external subtitle file (2) as a
separate track to the mpg video file (1)
ffmpeg -hide_banner -i DV09-1993.mpg -i DVD-09-1993_subtitle.srt
-c:v copy -c:a copy -c:s copy DV09-1993+srt.mpg

4) Successful Playback of the final video and Audio with subtitles
using a "reinforced" FFplay command - also found on StackOverflow
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50175075/can-ffplay-view-subtitles
ffplay -hide_banner -vf subtitles=DVD-09-1993_subtitle.srt
DV09-1993+srt.mpg
isn't this command just uses external srt and not muxed one?
Yes, I think you'r right, and I wondered a bit about it, but had no
keyboard shortcut for ffplay to test switching subtitles on and off.
So, afterwards I was more convinced - and fooled, when both Gnome Media
player (Totem) and SMplayer automatically displayed the subtitles.
But that was when the srt subtitle file had the same name as the mpg
video file and was located in the same directory. But this worked as
well with the first mpg file (1).
The command line "vlc dvd.mpg dvd.srt" also worked with audio. Why both
VLC and MPlayer lost the audio with the srt muxed mpg file I have no
idea about.
-----------------------------
From your first reply:
rendering text as palletized picture and then muxing it into mpeg
stream is unavoidable step,as far as I understand.
But may be those DVD creation guis can do srt => dvd_sub conversion
for you ?
Andrey mentioned the "srt2vobsub" program, which seems to the same as
the "srt2vob" script for DVD and "2dsub" for BD vobsub
https://web.archive.org/web/20130728210155/https://code.google.com/p/srt2vob
And from my reference to g-raffa:
PRE-RENDERED SUBTITLES
they are added (muxed) to the video stream as images with
minimal information but can be separated (demuxed) when needed. They
are used in DVDs and they can be turned on and off.
Most DVD authoring applications are capable of transcoding
external subtitles to pre-rendered subtitles and of muxing them to
the video stream.
Regarding the last sentece, this article describes the wanted solution -
but on Linux ...?
https://robots.net/tech/how-to-burn-dvd-with-subtitles-srt/
while another article points on Handbrake as the best solution for most
users (?)

Re 8) above
I also send a request to Raster soft why DeVeDeNG exits with an error
before finishing the mpg video file and creating the iso.

5) Playback using VLC
* OK playback of video and subtitles when adding the subtitle file
* BUT: The AUDIO is lost in VLC !?
* Have looked into several menu items (unmute and force volume on)
Additional I wonder:
du -sh DV*.mpg
2,0G DV09-1993.mpg (1)
1,9G DV09-1993+srt.mpg (3)
6) Why is the merged (subtitled) file (3) smaller than the initial
file (1)?
Even that the srt file is very small, it should rather be opposite
.........
7) And why the ffmpeg output (3), when the initial input mpg file
(1) was created using "-f dvd -target pal-dvd", which I thought
was just MPEG-2 and vob?
[mpeg @ 0x55aac134b140] pcm_dvd in MPEG-1 system streams is
not widely supported, consider using the vob or the dvd muxer
to force a MPEG-2 program stream.
8) DevedeNG got so far an error while creating the DVD iso from (3)
Tested the movie file in the tree structure with VLC, and also
that without audio.....
But may be those DVD creation guis can do srt => dvd_sub
conversion for you ?
2.1 Preferably I want to add/import subtitles as fast and
easy using GUI interactive tools like DeVeDeNG or VLC if
possible?
Next thereafter could be using the more time consuming ffmpeg
https://www.baeldung.com/linux/subtitles-ffmpeg#how-to-add-soft-subtitles
2.2 So is the question if learning a special subtitle editor
is necessary to create the text file easier, like one of these 5
https://www.debugpoint.com/3-great-subtitle-editors-in-linux-systems/
Tip, suggestions or experience how to do this?
