Long story short.
Translated a movie from English to Macedonian.
Want to stick it permanently on a avi movie.
Tried sh!tload of free small programs, but no one supports or has problems with cyrillic.
So anyone knows a good program, free or trial (I'll only be using it once probably),
that supports cyrillic, so I can put the srt file in the avi movie?

As subtitles you mean? I didn't even know uncompressed AVI could support subtitles.0

Mhm, subtitles.
And I've tried that link, and many others, all good except that the subtitle isn't exactly the cyrillic I'm after. It shows characters from the german, russian, greek alphabet. It's not clear cyrillic. But will have another go, the dude somehow solved it's problem.
Will try with some Sony Vegas trial and will see.0 -
So what is your end goal? Do you just want to see it with subtitles in media player or something, or are you making a DVD?0

Because my DVD Player doesn't support cyrillic I need the subtitle merged in the movie.
Otherwise I have no problem watching the movie on the PC.
BS Player and Nero Showtime have easy way to change the subtitle encoding from Western to Cyrillic.0 -
Just to be clear then, what you actually want is to re-render the video, but with the subtitles burnt in?
Hmm. That's way outside my scope of video knowledge. I don't think I've ever seen a video editing application that can read subtitle files and burn them in.0 -
There are plenty that work great with English (Western encoding), but almost none with cyrillic.

According to some forum I found this supports Cyrillic, and I know it works for other dialects, but I think you need a Cyrillic font installed for it to work.
Vague tutorial here. It hard-codes the subs into the movie, so you can't get rid of them later unless you save a backup copy of the movie.

Tried that and it sort of works.
The huge fail is that it works with subs written with the language bar set at English, and using with whatever font.
BUT
I've wrote the sub using Macedonian support, in the Language bar.
And now it doesn't work. :evil:0 -
Finally found a solution.
Found a program that converts the text written with Macedonian support to English characters.
And then with Avidemux, using Cyrillic encoding and Cyrillic font, got it working.
