I use the excellent Submerge to flatten subtitles into my AVI files and other movies. But sometimes, subtitles are available from sources such as SubScene or AllSubs as not the usual *.srt files (SubRip format) but as *.ssa or *.sub.

While searching for a converter between the captioned formats, Google did not turn up too much.

It’s Windows only, so if you are not on Windows you may have to use this within a virtual machine:

Download Subtitle Workshop

Usage is as simple as loading a subtitle file from the File menu, and then Save As and Bob’s your uncle.
