VOBSub is a program that allows you to take subtitles from raw VOB files from DVDs. The reason for doing this is so that you can change the subtitles however you want for use in a new video. The advantage of the program is that, for starters, it is very small. The program is less than a megabyte in size.

The software also comes with the option to download other utilities with it such as SubResync, SubMux and Associated Files. The software is multiplatform as well so you can use it no matter what your computer is running for an operating system. It is also advantageous that you have all of the tools you need in the same package. For example, you can use VOBSub to rip subtitles from a raw VOB file, and then directly use SubResync to make sure all of the speech in the video has subtitles perfectly in sync and ready for a new video in a completely different window.

The software will also work for Divx videos. The SUbMux part of the software package allows you to use AVI files in such a way as to use subtitles on home videos as well. The software works with a variety of video suites so VOBSub has flexibility. You do not have to try to figure out a completely different video processing software package. This is useful since they are often difficult to learn if you are already used to using a particular program. VOBSub works with foreign movies as well. This allows you to have subtitles with precise timing. You can even use it to watch your videos in a different language as well.

VOBSub has a virtual plugin option called VirtualDub that allows you to easily synchronize subtitles to DivX after you have ripped them off the DVD using the main program. The main advantage here is that it is a free program that will quickly get the subtitles off a DVD for you. Many other programs that do this same service actually cost a large amount of money.
