+vobsub2srt (convert VOBSUB subtitles to SRT)
+
+VobSub2SRT is a simple command line program to convert .idx / .sub
+subtitles into .srt text subtitles by using OCR. It is based on code
+from the MPlayer project. Some minor parts are copied from
+ffmpeg/avutil headers. Tesseract is used for OCR.
+
+vobsub2srt is released under the GPL3+ license. The MPlayer code
+included is GPL2+ licensed.
+
+The quality of the OCR depends on the text in the subtitles.
+Currently the code does not use any preprocessing. But you can
+correct any mistakes in the .srt files with any text editor.
