burning in subtitles with VLC

From https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0NzMlhnzQQ -

Burning in subtitles with VLC needs a bit of tweaking -

1. Media -> Stream, choose the video file. Don't enable the subtitle checkbox on that screen. Click the Stream button.
2. In the Stream Media Wizard, choose the destination as File. Click Add and choose a filename for the destination.
3. In the next Wizard screen, make sure activate transcoding is checked. Click on the settings button, in the subtitles tab, make sure the 'enable subtitles', and 'overlay subtitles on the video' are checked. Codec can remain T.140.
4. In the next screen, in the Generated Stream Output String, we need to edit out (delete) the part of the string which says scodec=t140,
5. Click stream to transcode.
