Tech help for uploading videos w/ subtitles?

[angora48]

Hey there. I have a handful of movie clips I'd like to share, but I'm having some trouble. They're all clips from Hong Kong movies, mostly in Cantonese with English subtitles. I figured out how to use VLC player to grab the specific clips I want off of my DVDs, and when I play the clips back through VLC, I see the optional subtitle track I can select. But when I try to upload the videos onto YouTube, I can't get the subtitles to show up.

Any tech-savvy folks out there able to help me out?

The only way to do subtitles would be to either manually input them using Youtube's caption feature or to screen record you watching the clips in VLC. I would recommend using Youtube's captions for the highest quality.

Thanks, Guy. I'll work on it. If I run into issues, can I PM you?

I got it figured out, thanks! Once I get my clips uploaded/subtitled, I'll make a new post to share them.
