embed srt into mp4/m4v

Question

i have an converted .mp4 video file (or .m4v) + an .srt file.

Is there a way for me to embed this .srt file into that mp4 file without running a complete convertion?

Solution

What you want to do is generally called muxing or re-muxing.

Have a look at Subler, it should be able to do what you want. Open your video file, then drag the srt onto the screen and save as new file.

"Subler is an Mac OS X app created to mux mp4 files..." Just a note for anyone out there reading the thread who's not on a Mac (and since OP never mentioned/tagged an OS)
