Re:"Kin-Dza-Dza!" on DVD
[quote=”SadGeezer”]It’s already been done!!
I have a full DVD quality copy of the disk and NewKate subbed it. Flame – whatever you do, don’t go through all th epain of re-subbing without first checkinvg out the sub files that I have!![/quote]
I’ll check it out. However, I’ve already gone through about 30 minutes of the film. This is the first time I’ve done subtitles so I might be doing something wrong and it might be all for naught. You know how these technical projects can go.
[quote=”SadGeezer”]I’ve managed top rip the subs from the DVD. They are at:
SRT format: [url=http://www.sadgeezer.com/KinDzaDza/KinDzaDza.srt]Click Here[/url]
SSA format: [url=http://www.sadgeezer.com/KinDzaDza/KinDzaDza.ssa]Click Here[/url]
SUB format: [url=http://www.sadgeezer.com/KinDzaDza/KinDzaDza.sub]Click Here[/url]
I’m in the process of ripping the DVD to an AVI file (takes 7 hours). Then I’ll upload it as a torrent to someplace like torrentspy or isohunt.
I’ll let you know when it’s done.[/quote]
I’ll download those files and take a look at them if I can. I must admit that I don’t know what those different formats are all about. I’m using Adobe Encore and it’s a very nice WYSIWYG program. I just type in the subtitles in a video preview window and adjust it using a timeline and character properties control. I like what I’m seeing so far. I’m using Albertus font for the subtitles, the same font that was used for numerous John Carpenter movie titles and credits. I’m also able to set the position of the subtitles so I can occasionally position them directly underneath the speaking character.
But like I said, I might have screwed something up and I just don’t know it yet.
I’ll check in with you later. 🙂
