Save subtitles created in DVD Studio Pro as a new .txt or .srt file

I just did the authoring of a 52mn documentary with 4 subtitles tracks, we received from the translator .srt's files which we imported with no problem in DVD Studio Pro. The problem is that there was a lot of mistakes and badly timed texts due to the poor work of the translation cie. We had to edit the subtitles and it was very easy in the subtitles editor in DVD studio Pro...Now I have to do a master of the film on beta num and i want to provide to my post production cie a QT file of the movie + a .stl of the subtitles we edited within DVDSP : How can I export the text from the subtitles track to create a new .srt, without having to do it manually which is very time consuming

Hope i'm clear !

please amigos, help me !

You can export an Item description of the track with the subs in which you have corrected and use Subtitle Xtractor

It's a free program and can take the Item Description and as the name implies extract the subtitles and create an STL file. Very handy

There was another utility called Subtitler that did this but don't think it's available anymore
