![]() srt - several players I think will use those files as is if they're present next to the video file. While DVD/Blu-Ray use graphics based overlay files, most of the PC formats like wmv use text files with special formatting characters. Switchable subs - being able to turn subtitle display on/off is available with DVDs, Blu-Ray, & several (most) PC/web formats. The only way to adjust things to get individual sub timing correct is to use one of a few apps that can preview the video & let you shift/adjust timing as needed - shifting the entire CC/sub stream forward or back is OTOH commonly available with sub & some DVD authoring software. CC/subs converted to text files & downloaded can also be *off*, as the movie they're based on can be slightly different lengths depending on the DVD version/country for example. Blu-Ray & other HD video can make sync more difficult since the video often lacks timing info - many apps then will open HD video at the wrong duration. With HD cable CC/subs are decoded by the cable box, rendered & send via HDMI as part of the picture since the HDMI spec left out a method of transferring a separate CC/sub stream.Ĭonverting CC &/or subs to text is a bit prone to minor errors in timing. CC when available is embedded in the video file as text in a binary form. Realmedia is not ideal, but considering the rather poor resolution of VHS it's probably as good a choice as any, providing you allow enough bandwidth or bit rate during encoding.ĭVD & Blu-Ray subs are separate graphics overlay files - to convert to text based files requires an OCR app, & there are several available. Currently the most efficient formats are H264/AVC & VC1, both used for Blu-Ray discs etc., but again the choice depends on what you're playing the video with. Video format depends on what you use to play the video & send the signal to your TV - there are dozens if not a hundred or more methods, boxes etc. Further – whats the best codec for efficient compression for DVD and BD quality video?"įor TV playback you need 1/2 to full-sized video frames - for NTSC that would be 320 x 240 to 720 x 480. I want to retain quality (which is naturally low on PAL VHS) but keep file size smallish – for playback on TV. #38: "best resolution and codec for converting VHS tapes to “small” file.

If I would have had to pay for this I would have been sort of pissed unless I bought it expressly for downloading youtube vids - something it does amazingly well. So this program gets a thumbs up for what it can do well and thumbs down for not being able to handle my hd converting.
