Part 2 : Extracting subtitles from DVD in SRT format

Tip 1: Change Text Color - Believe me this will be very useful with our bollywood DVD, specially old ones. As it says on top, uncheck all the background and outline color.



Tip 2: Enter Manually - this will be usefull sometimes with character like %

Tip 3: Skip Subpicture - if u cant find character on keyboard or its not requered then this will be helpfull specially with with logo like 'yashraj films' 'adlabs'.
