Serge you are a gentleman. I am sure your english is far better than most of
our russian. I am thinking that vodka niet and da is about as far as most of
us go.

Subject: [meteorite-list] Sikhote-Alin question
Hello List,
It was a request yesterday about English subtitles for Sikhote-Alin movie.
I decided to play a little bit here. So I created some subtitles for a
part
of the movie.
I cut the end of the movie and kept the only part with field works.
I want you not to judge me so much because that was my first experience
with
this software. I translated sentence by sentence from the voice behind the
screen. I also used an online translator from Russian to English. It paid
off as long as I wanted to do this job fast to see if I'm able to create
something like that. Of course I modified sentences but not all of them
and
not perfect. Actually I can't modify them perfect as long as my own
English
is far away from perfect ;-)
Also for some reason the software changed the size of the file (and screen
resolution) so now the file is about 70Mb (was 56Mb) and instead of actual
320x240 I have 640x480.
You can switch your player to 50% view and it will be the same quality as
original (I guess ;-)).
One more time: that was my first try with this software and correction of
video files at all.
I played for 9 hours but I can see now that I can do it! That was a fun
for
me yesterday!
If somebody thinks that I should try more and keep translating the rest of
the movie (some nice meteorites from great collection of Russian academy
of
sciences are showing on the end of it without translation) I can find some
time later to do this. But I think that first part must be re-done to be
more readable. If somebody has an interest to help me with this please
send
me your thoughts of how subtitles must be written.
I will try to get the file back to the original resolution later also.
That
should reduce the size of the file. The file is in the same format as it
was
(.wmv).
The movie with subtitles is ready for download here:

Enjoy!
