makemkvcon creates MKV with no Subtitle track

Post by plittlefield »

I have a problem with a DVD and makemkvcon.

makemkvcon will create an MKV but without the subtitle track.

HandBrakeCLI finds the 3 tracks...

Code: Select all

Found main feature title 1
+ title 1:
  + Main Feature

  + subtitle tracks:
    + 1, Unknown (4:3) [VOBSUB]
...but when I run the following command line...

Code: Select all

makemkvcon --minlength=1000 mkv disc:0 0 /tmp/
...with the settings of "+sel:all" it only uses the video and audio tracks in the resulting MKV file.

The subtitle track is missing.

Here is the mediainfo on the file it created:-
