Well, maybe I will not and maybe I would be able to cut down the
computing time to three quarters of an hour. Still not an entirely
convincing solution if one has to recode the video only to convert the
subtitles.

Now, for today I gave up and downloaded some Windows tool called
"AVIAddXSub"; works well under under wine and did a decent job in less
than two minutes.

That movie I could finally watch was excellent, by the way :-)

Best regards

Michael
