... the program has to "learn" which Image represents which character. Answer everyone of these question boxes very carefully. You may know that procedure if you ripped subtitles with SubRip once.

How to add permanent subtitles with VobSub

After that save as *.ssa. Finally start SubMux and drag and drop the AVI and the *.ssa into the window.

Press "MUX" and save as new *.avi. What is it good for? DirectVobSub is a direct show filter, which can be used to display subtitle files during playback in a software player. To display the muxed subtitle(s) you need to install Vobsub for DirectShow. The subtitles are not hardencoded to the video file. The advantage of submux is, that you don't need to carry arround a whole lot of single files. All you need to display the muxed subs is DirectVobSub. Open explorer, search for the *.avi, double click on it, usually Windows media player starts and DirectVobSub starts in the background. If you want to select a different language, right-click on wmp or doubleclick on the Dvobsub symbol on the task bar. Also there is a very detailed Dvobsub configuration dialog. Why the submux part of the guide is rather off topic? The subtitles are not hardencoded. So you can not simply load the *.avi as videosource and proceed. Well, it is possible. Start TMPGEnc, select option > enviromental settings > VFAPI plugins. Disable all plugins except directshow multimedia file reader. Then load the *.avi as video source, audio and subtitle will be loaded as well. You can even change the subtitle languages after you started the conversion. Anyway, this is very experimental and not recommended. Use Submux and DirectVobSub to playback only.
