[QUOTE="foxbenw, post: 877311, member: 115475"] Given that the whole point of this thread was to shrink the file size while retaining subtitles, i should also have pointed out that the idx exported by projectx can be used in mkvmerge with the original ts file to create a mkv with vobsub subtitles. ie one that can be used in handbrake or whatever. This does not need any ocr. I have just done exactly that with an sd recording, like this: 1 demux only subtitle stream from ts file using projectx 2 remux ts file together with idx from step 1 into an mkv file using mkv merge. Helps to add in the 'english' flag at this point too. 3 use that mkv in handbrake to do whatever - the subs now show up. Given my previous tests with projectx the results may be mixed, and will depend on which colour palette you choose and the other settings, but at least i have hopefully helped to answer the original question. (because rather amusingly after all that, when i open the mkv in videoredo, the vobsub subtitles are not shown!) Therefore if you want to retain the subtitles and shrink the file size, you do need both - videoredo to strip out ads, and handbrake to shrink/convert the resulting file with the vobsub track.
