[gentoo-user] embed subtitles on video to ipod

[Mauro Faccenda]

Hi people,

I have some videos and its respectives subtitles (.srt) and would like to 
watch them on my new iPod Video.

I already know how to recode them so can be played on iPod, but I don't know 
how to insert the legend from the .srt text file.

I was thinking about something like telling mplayer to "-vo" to a file and 
then recode that file, but I don't know how to do this.

I would like to have a only 1 pass (recode to ipod and add subtitles) to get 
it done, but a 2 pass (add subtitles, THEN recode to ipod) should be fine.

Any ideas?

Oh! I almost forgot: I tryied creating a matroska file with the subtitle, but 
I couldn't get ffmpeg to recode the video with the subtitle (-newsubtitle 
parameter).

Thanks in advance,

Mauro

  If you use mencoder to recode file to be iPod compliant, just add -sub
  /whereis/sub.srt to recode command. I don't know about ffmpeg.

I already tryied it... I don't know if I did something wrong, but the output 
doesn't had the subtitles.

Can you give me an example of how you do something like it?

Thanks,
