$ACHello all,

My thanks first of all to everyone who responded to my query about video
conversion tools for PC back in early January:

- Mark Kaiser (UC Berkeley)
- Ros Adulseranee (Northern Illinois University)
- Robert Summers (University at Albany)
- Jason Vance (Thomas Nelson Community College)
- Kay Yang (University of Chicago)
- Birgit Deir (Nazareth College)

(My sincerest apologies if I've left anyone off the list of respondents...)

I now have a follow-up question about subtitling video files.

I'm looking for ways to add subtitles to video in a fashion that is less
laborious than the iMovie subtitling interface.  I have essentially no
experience in this area and would be grateful for any pointers to software
(preferably freeware, ideally open source) as well as good technical write-ups
(describing the various subtitle extension types [.sub, .srt, .sst, ...], video
formats, players, etc.) for subtitling video files.

Thanks in advance for anything you can send my direction.

Mark
