Convert ASS to SRT

Converting Aegisub Advanced SubStation Alpha Files directly to SubRip Subtitle Files (.ass to .srt conversion) is certainly possible, and quite straightforward using one of many available subtitle conversion tools and editors, such as the Jubler Subtitle Editor.

You might also simply use a mulitmedia player, such as the VLC Player, which is capable of easily read most subtitle formats. Thus you could avoid converting .ass to .srt.
