Last week, I found my grandparents had to sit as close as possible to watch DVD shows played on TV because of their “lazy eye” and the tiny subtitles at the bottom of the screen, especially when the background of the show was white and bright, or a similar color to the font face. Often, they like to watch old movies in which the subtitles are white or yellow on screen. Sometimes, the subtitles’ position of some DVDs is not suitable, thus partial image is covered by subtitles when playing movie. I have tried several DVD rip software which may convert movies to other formats along with DVD subtitles editing, but can’t change the subtitle position, color and size. Maybe I didn’t find the related settings. I was wondering whether there is some software which can let me customize and edit DVD subtitles.

Also I like watching DVD movies and dislike small and faint letters. When searching on several websites and logging on some software forums, trying to find some software or players which can solve this problem, I saw that many people face the same problem as me. Someone tried many sorts of software. For example, Subtitle Creator can enlarge the size of the subtitles and change the font size, but it only supports text file. So there is still a text conversion process which is pretty time consuming; Subtitle Workshop also has the function to edit DVD subtitles, but sometimes it doesn’t work; when some friends use Convert x to DVD to burn a DVD with subtitle, which is certain color chose as red after converting it, then no matter what color is being set, it still comes out as red…

I also downloaded some software to have a try. For example, I wanted to use the VLC media player to shift the subtitle to be in the black. It told to change the value in order to change the position but nothing happened...; when I watched some movies in 16 / 9 format on a 16 / 9 monitor, I must make a zoom to have the image to fit the screen. But when using the zoom, the subtitles appear outside of the screen. I already tried Win DVD and Power DVD but none of them has this feature. The more software I tried, the more disappointed I was. Finally I turned to a friend of mine. He recommended a DVD ripper which can not only extract DVD but also change the size and color of the subtitle, as well as repositioning the characters.
The following is its main panel.


After selecting a video file, these tabs are highlighted.


Click the icon “Effects” in the middle and open the Effects window:


Click “TITLE” button and then adjust the subtitle style of the video.


If you want to change the color of the subtitle, select “Use User-defined Style “option, and click drop-down list, to choose color for your favorite. Changing the position for the subtitle is also easy and convenient. Just move the amaranth line up and down where the subtitle you want to adjust. Then click “Apply” and “OK”, open the file again in the main panel, you will see the effects changed.
The following is the snapshots.

After:


When using the program, I found another interesting feature that the watermark, including logo and picture, can be added to the video, with changing the position and the size of pictures and texts. All these functions are so cool and great. I can’t wait to recommend it to all of you. In addition, there are three versions for this program, including standard, platinum and ultimate. I use the ultimate version.

By and large , I don’t know if these words above are clear to express what I have done, including changing the font and size of the subtitle, adjusting the position and the color, even adding the watermark by the software, but I successfully make a DVD with the readable and great subtitles for my grandparents, and they returned a smile.
