This may not be the best way to extract subtitles but it is the method
I have used for quite awhile.
Go to http://www.videohelp.com and under 'TOOLS' look for the
following programs:
PgcDemux
http://www.videohelp.com/tools?toolsearch=pgcdemux&Submit=Search&s=&orderby=Name&hits=50&convert=&dvdauthorfeatures=
and DVDSubEdit
http://www.videohelp.com/tools?toolsearch=dvdsubedit&Submit=Search&s=&orderby=Name&hits=50&convert=&dvdauthorfeatures=
Run PgcDemux and input the VTS_????.IFO file and select an output
folder. Keep the 'Mode' by PGC. Since you are concerned with only
the subtitles the only 'Options' you'll need is 'Demux all subpic
streams'. A 'Domain' of Titles is all I use. Hit the 'Process!'
button. Your output file will have an extension of *.SUP. I forget
what the filename will be.
Next run DVDSubEdit and under 'File' select 'Open .SUP file'. Enter
you just created .SUP file. It will probably ask you for an IFO file
also but it is not needed. In the lower right hand corner click the
'Run OCR' button. When the process is complete click the 'Save as
..srt' button and specify a file name.
You now have a text file (.SRT) that you can edit in Notepad or MS
Word. All you need to do is open the new .SRT file in two Notepads or
two MS Words, using one as original and the other for your modified
language file, then saving it under a different name.
Some folks use SubRip to do the above but I have no luck using it most
of the time. The OCR in DVDSubEdit works better, IMO and you do not
have to tell it how to convert.
There may be easier ways to do what I described above but this method
works best for me.
Good luck.
