Unicode subtitle

Hi I'm looking for a program for subtitles thast also supports Chinese. When possible the program should be simple as hell because I only need to do this once and it are just 20 lines that need to be inputted.. Edit: sorry miscounted.. 21 sentences..

hi laane and welcome to the forum! i will move your thread to the subtitles forum, where hopefully one of the gurus there can help you out. good luck! j

What do you mean by "a program for subtitles"???? Do you mean a player, a software to edit/resynch subtitles, ... Tell us exactly what your problem is if you want an answer. Cheers Manusse

I have a video in .wmv the language is in english. They asked me to ad chinese subtitles to the movie (just 21 sentences). So I need to find a program which allows me to ad chinese subtitles to a movie. If possible a simple program because i'm a compleet n00b at this and frankly I have too much work to spend all my time learning how I have to use it.

I am not aware of subtitling software that supports Unicode. However, Subtitle Workshop does support both Big5 and GB encodings, so it should be sufficient for your purposes. Make sure you work with the SRT format for your subtitles (and not MicroDVD SUB format, which has some bugs when used in conjunction with non-ASCII encodings). The interface of Subtitle Workshop is reasonably intuitive... Good luck!

I just got myself the subtitle workshop, the intface is easy indeed but 2 minor problem. 1 when i copy the chinese caracters in the become questionmarks or squares 2 in which format are you supposed to save something like that?

Use Subtitle Workshop and make sure you set the fonts to Big5. You can load the video and see if the subtitle is in syn. While saving, use subrip format.

Thanks. I'll try. :p If it doesn't work I'll be back :D
