I have occasionally pulled the American subtitles out of British
movies, so that I could understand what was being mumbled on
screen by those playing aristocracy ;-0)
I use SubRip
(http://www.digital-digest.com/software/download.php?sid=1045&ssid=0&did=1),
an OCR symbol learning program which creates an editable text
file.
I would not call its interface intuitive, but it's also not
difficult to figure it out.
Since you're going to translate the text you extract, you'll not
need to go thru the extra steps of resolving confused characters
(some of which have been operator error as well as OCR misfires)
and spell checking.
In the case of SubRip, you just point it to the first VOB.
