    Hi Hans,

    I've just spent the past week end working out how to include subtitles on my DVD back-ups. Like you, I too used the instructions, but got stuck when wanting to include subtitles.

    (I used to use OSex + transcoder + toast and that worked fine when I didn't need to include subtitles)

    This is what I did for subtitles:

    1. I used DVDBackup (instead of OSex) and copied the whole disk to a folder on my desktop.

    2. I used DVD2OneX to encode the files -> the movie-only option allows you to select which subtitles you want to include. (disc-copy includes all subtitles)

    3. I burned with Toast.

    The backed up disc starts playing with subtitles switched on, but a press of the 'subtitle' button turns them off.

    So far, I can say I am glad I forced myself to pay money (ouch!)for DVD2OneX as it does exactly what it says it will.

    Hope this helps.

    Ang
