2.Now run srt2ssa.exe
3.Now click on the button browse next to the Input box.
4.Select your subtitle you which to use in your movie.
5.Change the font to the font you like, i use Verdana (best in my opinion), size 20 and set primary color to white
6.Click Convert
7.Normally when you've done that, you will get a message successfully converted or something like that.
(You need to do only once Step 1 to 8, next time just run VirtualDub.exe)
