Add Subtitles You Want to Your DVDs When Converting
If there are no subtitles you'd like to get, you have to burn SRT subtitles to DVDs, DVD Video_TS folders, or ISO Images. It's a bit more difficult since you need to find the subtitles. Use steps below when DVDs come with no subtitles or you want to embed or hardcode other external subtitles to DVDs.
1. Download subtitles for movies on DVDs. It may take some time and patience to dig out the right subtitles for your movies on DVDs. We list some good websites to free download subtitles for any movie and TV show.
Note that such free subsites are always brimmed with ads and redirects. Make sure you are downloading subtitles instead of adware.

Is it legal to download subs online? Some users are confused. Subtitles are derivative work of the movie or TV show. They can only be uploaded and distributed with the permission of the copyright owners. But we haven't heard of any such lawsuits in the US and Google doesn't shut down free sub download sites. You'd better download DVD movie subtitles for fair use, like personal or educational use.
What video subtitles format should you choose? Subtitles have many different formats, like SRT, SUB, SSF, PJS, PSB, RT, SSA. SRT is the most popular sub format, most sites offer SRT subs and you won't go wrong with it.
2. Load the source DVD disc or DVD file. Run the DVD subtitle software, click the Disc icon, or Folder, or Image icon to select the file to process. Choose an output format from the popping up profile window.
3. Click the Subtitle icon and choose Load Subtitle… from the list to show the subtitle window.

Click the Add button and choose the SRT sub you download from your computer. The Subtitle Position option allows you to insert the sub on the top, center or bottom of the screen. You will see the result on the preview window. Select the Built-in Subtitle option, you can burn hard subtitles to DVD movies.
