Subripper Guide

Some people have suggested that Subripper would work better to rip subtitles than Subrip. So here's the how you do it:

Let's start with the configuration, shall we? You can set the OCR options here - for instance change the pixel width if keeps losing the spaces beetween words (decrease width) or if it makes a space beetween every letter (increase width). You also have to set the Framerate here: 23.976fps for NTSC and 25.fps for PAL movies. If your'e dealing with an movie that has been encoded at 29.97fps (incorrect telecine flags and FlaskMpeg) you have to set 29.97fps.

Then in the Input tab you have to load all the vob files that the main movie contains in the right order (first file first). Then load the corresponding ifo file - need I say that it's generally the largest .ifo file on the DVD? After that go to Processing.

Press the start button which I managed to hide really well here. After a while the select color window will pop up. Usually selecting Color 1 will do but that depends on your movie. You can always abort and change the settings in the next try if you're not satisfied.

As Subripper is OCR based, too you'll have to teach it which image means what. After a while it should work without and more interference on your part.

When you're done save the output to a text file:

You can set which format you want it in so you don't even have to convert... Press the save as button to save the generated subs.
