adding subtitles to MPG file

Hey guys, I have these Mpg files that are public domain which are lectures. Problem is in some of them I can't hear what they are saying half of the time because they are either speaking too sofly, or there is too much backround noise to hear what they are trying to say. Adding subtitles would help to understand what they are saying.

Anyway I converted the .mpg file to a .Vob file because as far as I know you can not add subtitles to an mpg file.

Any advice, relevant threads, or websites that you think might be helpful would be much appreciated. thanks a bunch

I don't know much about subtitles so hopefully someone else will chime in. I wonder though if it wouldn't be easier to demux the audio stream, clean it up using Goldwave or similar, then remuxing it.

That just might work. I could give it a try and see what happens, however I'd still be interested in figuring out how to get the subtitles in there. thanks for the advice
