                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 (?)
        https://helpdeskgeek.com/how-to/how-to-burn-a-dvd-disc-with-subtitles/


        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.


    may be this tip from 2015 will help with devede-ng too?

    https://momentstuff.wordpress.com/2015/10/29/subtitles-with-devede/



also be aware about non-utf8 subtitles with this method (possibly rare nowadays but still). devede-ng should have dropdown menu for selecting it.

https://groups.google.com/g/devede-forum/c/2Thoie_DSXQ


Now I have tried both ASII, UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1 encodings, but still DevedeNG exists with error, also already when trying the Preview button. DevedeNG 4.17 has a newer gui and I cannot see there is any Advanced button for Mencoder. I also tried to add a pure dv clip and a srt subtitle file in Devede, and got the error again.
