first off the only way to get the subs in is to manually type each subtitle and sync them all visually. really? that is stupid that vegas does not support .sub or .srt
Yes, that's how you have to do it if you want them hard-coded. I don't know of any video editing software that will "support" .sub or .srt files, it just doesn't work that way.
You could go the mp4 route you described in your second post, but that will likely cause a loss in quality like you've described.
I think you've figured out your other issues you brought up, but frankly I couldn't tell, and I don't care.
Why, you ask? I coudln't tell because you don't break up your thoughts into paragraphs, you just let them run on and on and on, making it hard to figure out what you're saying. I erased my whole post and started over again because I saw the sentence(s) I quoted above right before I clicked "post."
I don't care because you're being an entitled, impatient jerk who expects everyone to magically solve his problems as soon as he posts about them, and bitches and moans when it takes too long.
Not everyone here is a fan editor, and not every fan editor here uses the program(s) you use (I don't, I've never touched Vegas). So there are actually not very many people here who can answer your questions. And even fewer will want to with the attitude you have.
Be more patient and nicer with your questions, and they'll get answered more quickly and more frequently.
And video editing can be tedious work. Don't dismiss something you have to do because it's "stupid." I've had to subtitle an entire film (movie was Spanish, subtitles had to be English) using the method you yourself described in the quoted text above. It kinda sucks, yeah, but it's part of the job, man.
