Does anyone actually know of a decent software for adding subtitles to a film without having to go through the whole conversion process?

Hey, give this one a shot—you can have the whole thing wrapped up in about two minutes.

Just grab VLC media player... then you can literally just drag and drop the subtitle file right onto the movie window while it's playing.

I think he's trying to hardcode the subs directly into the video file without having to re-encode the whole damn thing, rather than just overlaying them temporarily.🙄

Fair enough... I totally misread the situation there.😁

Just slap the subtitle on there in about 15 minutes. It doesn't get any easier than that.

Takes about 15 minutes just to burn in a subtitle. I mean, you really couldn't ask for anything more straightforward than that, right?

But why on earth would you waste 15 minutes on that when you could wrap things up in just 3 or 4 minutes using either YouTube Premium or Netflix
? I mean, think about it—that's basically five times faster than what you're doing! And the best part? No installation required, and they're totally free, too!🙂
