[MPlayer-users] splitting a video and subtitle file

[Hillel Chayim Yisraeli]

Hi, I have a 1400 MB video and an Srt subtitle file to go with it.  I
need to split it up into two chunks of 700MB so that I can fit it on
700MB cd's for a friend who doesn't have a dvd drive.  Splitting the
video's no problem with mencoder or with avisplit, but splitting the
subtitle file and keeping the sync of the video/subs seems problematic.
Does anybody have an idea what I can do about this?

Maybe I can put the subtitle stream into the avi?  Would that do the
trick?  Or, is there a way to actually burn the subtitles right onto the
picture, losing the ability to turn them off?  Since I'll be keeping the
original myself, I don't mind doing this to his copy.

Thanks in advance,

HCY.
