I'm not an English speaker but love to watch English movies online. In the past I used to watch movies on DVDs with subtitles enabled. Subtitling is important for me to understand storyline, improve English and enjoy the movie fully. I didn't prefer to watch movies online simply because they lacked subtitles even though all the movies on my wish list were available there which I couldn't find in any video store. But then recently I found a software called SubViewer which can upload a text subtitle file. As you know subtitle files are easily available on the internet. I use this software mostly in transparent mode which appears as if the subtitle is integrated to the video as in DVD play.
Here's a snapshot from the movie Repulsion being watched on Megavideo and subtitled with Subviewer running under transparent mode:

I have a habit of pausing a movie every other second, to surf internet, to look up a definition of a word etc. Here the first problem arises. When I pause a video, Subviewer keeps on running for a while because it takes me some time to first turn off its transparent mode and then to pause it. So you see it takes a lot of time and energy when you pause it all the time. The other major problem is that the video and subtitle become non-synced. When I restart the video, I have to repeat the whole procedure - turn on the transparent mode of Subviewer, make the subtitle synced with the video. I hope you can see the problems.
Is there any way to make the process simple? Is there a way to pause both the online video and Subviewer simultaneously? Is there any other software of Subviewer type which offers more functions? Any other suggestions?
Thanks a lot for reading this and especially your time.
