Hello All-
I have a Divx movie,PAL formatte,560x288,with a .srt file-
I have been able to put it on a dvd with ChenMan's detailed tut. Thanxz very much CM.

my problem is with the subtitles-
they seem to be too big and gets cut off-so I can't read the outer edges of the text.

I'm using AVI2DVD ver. 1.2.2 build3
in the subtitles tab:

My QUESTion is:
A-should I change the font size?

B- there is a option to Resize, defaulted at 100%,two tabs above Ext.subtitle font. should I change that number instead?

or
C-should I change the PaL divx to Ntsc, so the resolution can be smaller?

which of these options,would you guy use to remedy my situation?
or maybe there are other options, please educate me.

In the Subtitle tab of DVD2SVCD, set the "Ext. Subtitle Font" to "Verdana, 18" if it is not. If they extend accross the screen to far, just edit the *.srt file in Notepad and turn a long 1 line into 2 short lines:

This line is way to long to be used as a Subtile in DVD2SVCD.

would then become

This line is way to long to be used
as a Subtile in DVD2SVCD.
