How to Add Subtitles to a DVD-R

With the advent of downloadable content, the desire to add your own sub-titles to a movie has grown. This is largely due to the majority of movies being in English, thanks to the mainstream movie industries of the United States and the United Kingdom. Adding your own sub-titles in a language of your choice can be easily done, and can be done through the use of various types of subtitle-creating and adding software.
