Publisher's Description
From Bitfield:
Create soft subtitled movies for iPad, iPod (Touch, Classic, Nano), iPhone (2G, 3G, 3GS), Apple TV, iTunes or any QuickTime based player or app.
The first and only application to take full advantage of Apple's soft subtitle technology. The subtitle tracks are resolution independent and rendered in real-time as you watch the movie. Subtitles are always displayed at the best quality your device can perform. There are support for multiple languages in the same movie file and you can even switch language on the fly as you watch. If you already have a movie in a format that suits your needs there's no reason to re-encode it, just add the subtitles and you're good to go. If, on the other hand, your movie is not suited for your device you can batch re-encode it straight from within the application. You can also tag your file with metadata.

"Splendid program"
Version: iSubtitle 2.3.2
Pros
After a year of trying to add subtitles to .avi files, I found this treasure. It's dead simple to use and so far there have been no problems at all.
Cons
Haven't found any yet
Summary
Occasionally both QuickTime and Toast 10 will display the subtitles but disappear after burning the file to a DVD. I'm no pro and was at my wits' end until I stumbled across this program.

"Does the trick!"
Version: iSubtitle 2.3.1
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I spent some time looking for an app that could manage subtitles on files and came across Submerge and iSubtitle. They both work well but the latter uses soft subtitles and great for Mac users. You can control both the size and appearance of subtitles. You can incorporate subtitles with apps such as VisualHub but you do not get the level of control as with iSubtitle.
One limitation for me is that it will not work of you have a file in 2 parts though this is something that the developer has said may be in a future version.
Online support is great. -

"And it crashes and crashes and crashes ..."
Version: iSubtitle 1.5.3
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
(Sorry for my bad english - I am a german speaking person.)
I tried iSubtitle for months, an it is getting worst every update!
The programm worked some versions ago at least with UTF-8 encoded subtitles, but now it is crashing even with them. The programm has big trouble to add a subtitle (.srt format) in non-english character sets (german with windows latin-1 character set). It mostly works with .avi-files and UTF, but crashes in 90%, with all .mkv-files and a subtitle file in windows character set.
But it sometimes works! Same files, an hour later it crashes with the same files ??????
It whould be a wonderfull app, if it whould work, but if you are using "Perian" and non-english subtitles, it is ...
Stay away, since every update tell you, that all the problems are solved now - and in reality has become even worst!
Just use Perian to add subtitles, and load the subtitles. You just must put the subtitle in the same folder as the movie file, and name it like the .avi/.mkv/... file. For example: "moviefilename.mkv" and "moviefilename.en.srt" and "moviefilename.de.srt" (german) and Perian will add all subtitlefiles to the File. Then command-j and rename the subtitlefiles as you like, and safe all as .mov-file. You can add this .mov-file to iTunes. In iTunes the movie will be shown with the subtitle you have marked in Quicktime. If you want to watch the movie with an other subtitle, you have to open the file in Quicktime (right-click and "show the file in finder", then command-j) an make acctive or non-active the subtitle as you like.
iSubtitle whould be wonderfull, since the Perian-trick works only with movie-fies opend with perian (mostly .avi and .mkv), so for all .mov-files we still need a program, or do it the long and hard way in Quicktime itself. But we need an working app!
