Hello,

The only thing that separates this software from the best alternatives on the market is the possibility to insert subtitles. It would be very helpful to have such a feature or it would be useful to have a tutorial on how to do that.
I understand that it is possible to insert subtitles but that feature is accesible only to advanced users.

you have to use avisynth script as source, avisynth is a simple text file with .avs extension,

simplest example of such script for addins subtitles will be
directshowsource("yourmoviefile", fps=yourmoviefilefps, convertfps=true)
textsub("subtitlesfile")
you will need to install avisynth and vsfilter (vobsub), and put that file in the same directory with your movie and your subtitles
it will accept subtitles in txt (mdvd), subrip and ass/ssa formats
more info about usage of textsub and subtitles formatting (http://avisynth.org.ru/docs/english/externalfilters/vsfilter.htm)

ps obviously replace yourmoviefile, subtitlesfile with your filenames with extensions and yourmoviefilefps with fps of your movie

Tank you for the reply,

After I try to convert the file.avs I have as a result a 10 sec movie clip which says "Script error: there is no function named textsub"
("path\file.avs", line 2)
Could you assist me please ?

---------------------------------------------------
I sorted that out too, I just had to install some modules in the AviSynth directory. After the movie was converted and I tried to see it I got the "bad public atom ..." error message.
I used the post in this forum to sort that out, respectively I added that command to the avs file. It has to work.

Thank you guys !
