The program and all the library are taken from debian lenny repository, and then I make a pet.
I tested it on puppy 431 and work properly.
If you want load also the video you need to have a full installation of Gstreamer (of course not included in my pet). I prefere to load the video in Gxine and use subtitleeditor just only for edit the subtitle traslation.
GStreamer installatiion make puppy too much fat.



Subtitleeditor-0.21.1

Thanks for putting the link for the pet here

I tried it with Gstreamer and had a lot of problems - and as you mentioned it made my puppy also very fat.

With Gstreamer going I now have running videos right there to help with making of subtitles.

I found this thread helpful for getting Gstreamer
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=21449

You also need liboil to get Gstreamer to work. (also available on above thread)

Running subtitleeditor from the console there are still a lot of error messages from Gstreamer - I guess even the Gstreamer pets from the above mentioned thread are somewhat incomplete.

Anyway it appears to work
Thanks

Yes paulski, I tried gstreamer too, but is so heavy, but if you wish there is another subtitle editor you can use even better of this one, called aegisub, here you can get a binary build

so you don't need to compile yourself, but don't work in puppy 431 or older, cause it need a newer glib version.
You can use dpup for running with success this program.
