Mahdi Ghazanfar Iran Local time: 05:42 English to Farsi (Persian) + ...

Hello,
Recently I have been offered a class for teaching. I've found some films from Youtube and want to add Farsi subtitles to them and use them as educational aid.
Please share your knowledge with me and let me know how I can add my subtitle file which is in (.ssa) format to my film. Moreover if a film has more than one part how I can join them together and make one single film. I have used Subtitle Maker to make subtitle file. I've useImTOO Movie Maker 6 for adding the subtitle but i failed to add it to the film.
Kindly let me know how I can add subs to the film and make my film parts join together (if any other software helps me in this way please inform me).
Bests
Mahdi

There are ways

If you're going to watch a movie with subtitles being displayed every time you play it, then you have to BURN them. Burning in subtitles means that we’ll put them directly into the video source. This has the advantage of being playable on every platform (even PSPs and iPhones), but the process takes a lot longer and you won’t be able to remove the subtitles afterwards.
These are so called "hard subtitles" (or forced - вшитые, неотключаемые).
Files you’ll need:
-VirtualDub
- VobSub (not to be confused with DirectVobSub)
- Decent video codec, like Xvid
Just google for "burning subtitles into avi" or simply "burning subtitles". There are abundant links to video decoding sites with illustrated step-by-step tutorials. Follow the instructions and try applying them.
Otherwise, just put you sub file into a folder with the movie. These are soft subtitles (отключаемые). You can remove your subs (or drag them away to a different folder) any time you like after you have watched the film.
Joining parts of a film is no big deal. Make use of the fabulous VirtualDub (search for a stable release on the official site). Open Video file > Append > Save as.

Avidemux software
Jun 12, 2011
I think that a very convenient software for burning subtitles on avi and other formats of videos is Avidemux. You can download it for free, and you don't need any additional software.
I have tried it many times and the results are perfect.
You just need to consult the manual here http://www.avidemux.org/admWiki/doku.php?id=start, because it's not very easy to use without any instructions.
