[X-Unix] adding subtitles to a movie

[Jakob Peterhänsel]

Hi Xavier,

Well, to start I think you might get better answers over at the  
QuickTimeTalk list - but it would be in the area of:

- Make a Subtitle track somehow.

If you can do so with a SMIL track, have to use DVD Studio Pro or  
something else, I have no clue - but QT does offer 'text' tracks that  
can be added on-top of existing movies.

Hope it points in a direction,

     Jakob Peterhänsel
