Hi. I've been looking for a German video to add subtitles to for ages, and I think this Lindenstrasse.de may be useful.

I was wondering, does anyone know how (or what software to use) to convert "xfred" files to avi or mpeg ones, so that I can add the subtitles using "Windows Movie Maker".

I really hope someone can help, thanks in advance.

Regards, Ed

Do you want to create a DVD video? Or any other format will work for you as well?

What kind of subtitles do you want to add? Do you have or want to use files like .SRT?


You may use freeware DVDFlick to convert FLV videos to DVD Video. The program allows you to add subtitles.

If you have an .FLV file and .SRT subtitles that doesn't need to be synchronized, you may just rename .SRT giving it the same filename that .FLV file has and put it into the same directory. Then launch .FLV file with VLC and you should be able to watch .FLV video with subtitles (subtitles should be shown automatically)

Have you tried this on a "live" stream?
VLC is at a workstation, but what about viewing the file over the Internet, from a streaming server?

Wondering if Adobe Flash supports this, too. Doubt it, but now I'm curious.
