Dear Dave, Thanks for pointing out DVBSTREAM tool. I will check it and see if it solves. Are you also aware of some software which can convert the whole Transport stream into Program stream which can be further authored into DVD. Another point is that I am interested in DVB-Teletext (VBI) storage and I guess DVB-subtitles are subset of DVB-VBI standard, so I hope dvbtools/dvbstream can address that issue without any problem.

I don't think the problem is that the text needs to be justified on both sides, it's the fact that teletext subtitles use a fixed-width font, and the subtitles can be positioned at any location on the 40x24 character screen. Different broadcasters have different conventions for broadcasting subtitles - some may left-justify the subtitles, some may centre them, and others may use full-justification. Also, some broadcasters use different colours to represent different voices. My "dvbtools" project includes the "dvbsubs" package. You can download it via CVS from sourceforge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dvbtools/ "dvbsubs" consists of various programs with the aim of authoring a DVD with subtitles from a DVB broadcast with subtitles. It can also convert the subtitles in a transport stream to a ".srt" file that can be used with mplayer. You could also use "dvbstream" (available at the same site) to record from your DVB card - you may find it easier than mplayer. It is capable of recording multiple channels from the same transponder at the same time. Nico now does most of the maintainence of that program, and it shares a lot of code with the DVB implementation in mplayer.
