I leave it to you to research HARDSUB. I don't offer a tutorial but I know what you are trying and this may be one way.
Then create a closed caption text file and put the text you want in there with the appropiate flags. This is a FULL MANUAL PROCESS!
-> The tag follow an object is something I see in near million dollar software systems. Most folk I know don't have the budget for that.

I have a project where I need to add text to video. The video was capurted from a vehicle driving along a 10 miles stretch of road (AVI). I need to label power poles, signs, and other structures along the route.
Example: As the video starts and the first power pole comes into view, I would like to tag it with text, and as each frame comes up, have that tag move with the power pole. As the next pole comes into view, i need to tag it as well, as the pole moves through the scene, the tag (text) follows it, smoothly.
I would like to be able to edit the video, then provide our client with the video for them to view, having the tags (text) show up as they view it, either frame by frame, or in full motion.
I know there are video editing software that will let me add text, but is there anything out there that will allow me to tag something in a video and then have the tag follow that object in the next frames. Could I tag it in the first frame, and again in the last frame, and let the software move the text... Any help on this would be greatful.
