Re: Upload form says "Unsupported subtitle format"

i think utf-8 would be the better alternative. you won't lose any "non-ascii" characters by using utf-8

These subs can be captured from the Teletext-Feature, if you want (but maybe you use this way already).
Yeah, I do that a lot! Its just that Germany does have a pretty bad subtitle coverage, so thats one motivation for me to help out in German subs.

oh there are HUGE differences in "hard of hearing/hearing impaired" and usual subtitles: just some examples - good subtitles for "hearing impaired" contain: - a hyphen ("-") when speaker changes (otherwise a deaf person won't recognize the change) - "non dialog aud...

Subtitle Workshop isn't capable of opening Unicode or UTF-8 encoded files. Adjusting subtitles even works pretty good with http://www.ordero.net/subadjust/index.html - an online tool. Time Adjuster is a good (old) tool as well, but it neither supports Unicode/UTF-8 Aegisub is imo the best _free_ too...

One big reason is being hearing impaired or deaf at all. I know many deaf people and thats the main reason for me to create or OCR subtitles. Germany has just some subtitled shows/movies in television - german movies are often without german subs (not on DVD), so hearing impaired people can't watch ...

for those cyrillic letters: make sure you save those subs either as UTF8 or Unicode. If you can open the subs in e.g. Notepad and it shows the cyrillic letters then the file is okay. if not then you might have saved it using ANSI. So if the file is okay (showing cyrillic letters) then you have to us...
