It that is all it does, I'd recommend avidemux. It even has a GUI which allow you to do simple video editing tasks like cutting out the commercials from a recorded broadcast. It also appears to have a built-in tool for adding and converting subtitles. http://fixounet.free.fr/avidemux/ The only problem I've had with the program is maintaining audio-to-video synchronization when I attempt to create an mpeg out of an avi with an "nonstandard" frame rate of, say, 15 fps. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
