VobSub2SRT is a simple command line program to convert .idx / .sub subtitles into .srt text subtitles by using OCR. It is based on code from the MPlayer project - a really really great movie player. Some minor parts are copied from ffmpeg/avutil headers. Tesseract is used as OCR software.
An example of using the tool is below, note that you can pass a --blacklist of characters to help the OCR recognition - there is also a sub-command vobsub2srt.with-basic-blacklist which has a basic blacklist. If you want to see the processing of each line you can pass --verbose.
If you have the files subtitles.idx subtitles.sub simply run the command vobsub2srt subtitles this will generate a new file called subtitles.srt.

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
Snap is available for CentOS 7.6+, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6+, from the Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repository. The EPEL repository can be added to your system with the following command:
sudo yum install epel-release
Snap can now be installed as follows:
sudo yum install snapd
Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap:
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
To install vobsub2srt, simply use the following command:
sudo snap install vobsub2srt
Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap.
