Okay guys (and gals), I've been downloading a number of movies through torrents as of late, but I've come across a bit of an issue. A number of the movies come in folders accompanied with subtitle (.srt) files. Now, I know how to apply the subtitles to the video files while burning them, but my computers are all a bit outdated and have trouble doing such a hefty task. If there's anybody on the board who's educated in such matters and burns their own DVDs (with subtitles mind you), I'd like to hire them to burn these files to disc for me. I'd rather burn the folders onto data DVDs and mail them to somebody and have them do the work for me instead of waste hours and hours on teaching my computer how to point at me and laugh. My fiancee does that enough as it is.

Any takers? If so, let me know and give me an idea of what kind of financial compensation you would want. Thanks!

 Cheers

I try not to go into it much on the board here but I'm a frequent downloader of torrents and burner of DVDs.  The SRT files have always proved a problem for me.  As far as film torrents go, they are usually in a Divx format and I have a set top divx player for those, but it does not read the SRT files.  I end up having to watch the films on my PC while using SubtitleTool which automatically adds the SRT in time with the film, but only on the computer.

I'm curious as to how you would apply the subtitles to the film and burn the DVD with the subtitles and the film to be in sync as far as timing.
