How to paste subtitles .srt to movies .avi

Many times we have movies in .avi format, but when we open them ... surprise! They are in a language we do not understand! The solution is to download a separate subtitle file, but if we want to watch that movie on television, for example, by recording it on DVD or via USB, we can not play both files at the same time. The solution is to paste the subtitles to the movie permanently, so that we have only one file. How to do it? In .com we tell you how to paste .srt subtitles to .avi movies .
