WonderFox HD Video Converter Factory Pro is a feature-rich program. With it, you can add subtitle (SRT/ASS) to MP4 and other videos in one step. This software also lets you remove subtitles from videos easily.
Subtitles are always shown as the text word of the dialogue or commentary in movies, TV programs, video games, music videos, etc. Most subtitles consist purely of text characters since text is the simplest data to be stored and compressed. There are common subtitle formats such as SRT, ASS, SSA, IDX, SUB and more. And SRT is perhaps the most text-based of all.
While many people are not used to watching DVD movies with captions, subtitle is still very useful under certain circumstances. For instance, you may have some collections of foreign-language DVDs as there are definitely many fabulous films from other countries. With subtitle files, you can probably get a better understanding of the film story and mood. Moreover, learning a new language through watching movies with subtitles is much easier.
If you ever need to add external subtitle to video, you can find a video subtitle joiner to do it easily. In the following, I will show you how to add SRT to MP4 permanently with a handy subtitle tool.
