Hey, I wonder if you could write a batch/script to create a subtitle file for 
each video containing the filename, and then tell MEncoder to hard-code (don't 
know the proper term) the subtitle stream into the output. Should be possible.

I could look into this, but won't bother unless you don't get an answer.
