HandBrake is not a muxing tool. You can't do video passthru.

[mahtil]

do you know any muxing tool to do that for pc to share it or should the makers of handbrake make a soft like that

If you were using the MKV container I would recommend MKVMerge (Part of MKVToolnix).

A lot of hardware players will not support soft subs in the MP4 container.

And no, IMHO your request is not within the purview of Handbrake.

tnx a lot guys but i found it it works with the soft sub are working with vlc my planes are for my samsung hdtv her is the app it's yamb + mp4box + notepad++ to edit the sub in case to detect and convert the sub to utf-8 now aim going to go to try it on my tv when aim back i will make i tutorial + imgs for the processes

I would suggest that you seriously test the Samsung TV playing before you start anything as the player software in most modern TV's is brain-dead.

[mahtil]

and it didn't work yep you'er alright [Censored] companies nothing is complete now aim going always connecting my pc to tv and use vlc blahblabla....

[mahtil]

so if anyone is interested on how i manage to get the soft sub at least for vlc say it and i will do it

If you are going to use your PC, I suggest that you seriously look at XBMC for a good library management and playing experience. I also invested in a USB Wireless Mini-Keyboard and it really is good.

If you are going to use your PC, this is what I would do.

1. Download the subtitles from one of the subtitle sites if you don't already have them. (opensubtitles.org is one of many)
2. Download chapters from one of the chapter sites. (http://chapterdb.org is again one of many)
3. Remux original file + 1 & 2 into a MKV file....

It works fine for me.
