Subtitles

Post by apdso9 »

I have a Problem.
I want to rip the Bluray "only 60 seconds".
The Bluray have 4 sutitles in English and 4 subtitles in German.
How to check wich subtitle is for the deaf and wich one is the regular subtitle / forced subtitle?
For testing I choose all subtitles 4 English and 4 German.
When I open the MKV-File in VLC I can see only 2 English subtitles (subtitle / forced subtitle)
and 2 German subtitles (subtitle / forced subtitle).
The remarkable is thath the English subtitle and forced subtitle is the same (you can read everything that is spoken)
Could someone please help me?
I want only the regular subtitle / forced subtitle without any deaf thing...

THANKS :)

According to a posting I saw somewhere from the author, MakeMKV won't do forced subtitles from Blu-ray disks (yet).

No, Blu-ray forced subtitles are supported; it's DVD forced subs that aren't.

Forced subtitles were not in the mp4 file I created with Handbrake from the MKV of the Captain America Blu-ray I created with 1.7.0. I don't keep the MKV files, but I'm guessing they weren't in it either, particularly since the author of MakeMKV said that it did not yet support them from Blu-ray. However, they are in the MKV file I created this morning using the new version 1.7.2 and the same settings. So I guess this has been fixed.

HandBrake doesn't support Blu-ray subtitles at all.

Where? Blu-ray forced subs have been supported for a while; this is why there there is a checkbox for them.

Again, it's DVD forced subtitles that aren't supported (which is whey there isn't a checkbox for them).

Nothing has changed in that regard between 1.7.0. and 1.7.2.

You can't in advance since the whole stream must be processed first. You can extract all PGS subs and check them with BDSUP2SUB.
MultiMakeMKV: MakeMKV batch processing (Win)
MultiShrink: DVD Shrink batch processing
