    If the Chinese is soft subbed then you can just move it to another folder. You should first have the English subtitles written and timed and then open the video file, using VirtualDubMod and be sure to have the VobSub and K-Light Codec Pack in the same folder with the VirtualDubMod.

    When you have the video file on the screen, go to 'video' click on filters, add / chose the 'textsub' then open the file of the subtitles (should be .srt or .sub) click ok, and again ok. now go to 'video' click on 'compression' click on Divx codec (so that you won't have a file the size of your entire hard disc)

    After that you have to go to the 'file' 'save as' , and that's it.

    Good Luck!
