Do you have Java Virtual Machine installed ? Get it HERE

To use it, just download it and then :

1.      unzip the file

2.      double clic on “subtitle grabber.exe”



READ CAREFULLY

First thing you should see is the program.  If it is not so, you have to install a free program called Java Virtual Machine

I downloaded a Thai action flick about a month ago and needed subtitles to know what was going on... I wasn't sure what to do either until I selected the film itself and the subtitles together and pressed enter. Worked perfectly. Simple, I know, but maybe it's worth a shot.

Also, perhaps you need a codec pack, like the Kazaa Codec Pack.

That subtitle grabber doesn't work in winex (I don't have a Windows computer), so I can't help you.

The only things I can think of are using the latest version, installing the Java VM, or installing codec packs.

Mega Codec Pack 2.24f
SLD Codec Pack 1.53

Thanks all for your patience with me l have got the sutitles l needed,but how do l get them onto the movie can anyone help and l promise to leave you all alone!

If you want to write them onto the movie use virtualdub.

You might need to acquire some subtitle software to convert and/or write them to the movie file. Try Vosub and Srttossa.

If you are playing the movie on your PC put the sub file in the same folder as your movie.

If you are writing to DVD I can't help - sorry!
