I've been trying to burn some anime onto a dvd to watch on my tv lately but everytime I used VSO the subtitles come out weird. So, I decided to extract the subs from the MKV then hardsub it. I've sucessfully done that minus the part where the subs aren't the same font as the one seen when I play the MKV. Anyone know why this is? Do I have to download a font pack or something?
There should be a font file muxed in the mkv I believe as these serve I think as a just incase the fonts aren't installed on your computer sorta thing (all fonts located under C:\WINDOWS\Fonts), Haali Media Splitter then installs the fonts that are in the .mkv temporary when the file is being played. I'm guessing that the font isn't in your "C:\WINDOWS\Fonts" folder so try extracting the font from the mkv and placing it there and see if that works.
I have no problems watching it on my monitor. I just wanna watch it on my OLD tv that doesn't have any HDMI ports so I can't watch it via my laptop. Also, there doesn't seem to be any video converter out there that fully supports .ASS/.SSA subs including the font and animation/effects that fansubbers like to use. Yes, it is a lot of hassle, my Pentium D isn't really that fast so it takes quite a bit of time to convert a whole series. Thank you I'm re-encoding it again now to see if it works. I'm fairly confident this should solve my problem. Thanks again I'm not good with these kinda programs, not my thing. Old chunky tv. Doesn't have any HDMI ports.
