Dear bernade,
There is no such thing as "the subtitling best software for X". All the programs have their pros and cons, and which one suits you best depends on your budget and your specific professional needs. Please outline the two, so that I can proceed giving you advice on which tool to pick.

Hi Max,
I'm a translator but wanted to learn more about subtitling and I'm just starting an online course with a university in the UK which uses Subtitle Workshop. But I work with a Mac, so I'm trying to find, if possible, a free software for the time being. What do you think of Aegisub?

I'll be brutally honest here: Subtitle Workshop doesn't cut it for professional subtitling — for many reasons, but mainly because it lacks shot change detection, which makes creating accurate, standards-compliant timecodes simply impossible.
Aegisub is a superb tool that I used for subtitling for 4 years. Bear in mind, however, that it was created specifically for anime fansubbing — and it excels in that domain, but when it comes to other kinds of subtitling, it does not provide sufficient functionality (for instance, it has no checks save for reading speed and line length).
For the time being, you should use Aegisub; it is definitely one of the best (if not the best) free subtitling tools compatible with Mac. It is very different from SW in how it works, however, so you will have to adapt.

Thanks for the advice. I'm having troubles downloading the software, I left a message on Aegisub forum but no solutions yet...

You can go to the Downloads section, scroll down to the OS X category and try and download any of the previous versions. http://www.aegisub.org/downloads/

Hi Bernade,
In Aegisub, go to File → Export Subtitles → Select the text encoding → Click "Export..." → Select the *.srt format → browse to the destination folder → Click "Save".
Note, however, that Aegisub does not save formatting (font color/I/B/U).

I saw that you could import a txt file with the subtitles to save time. So I'm trying to. Each actor's name if followed by a : There are only 2 actors, but somehow, the text is not cut between each actor, only between the same actor… Don't know what I'm doing wrong...
Thanks again
