How to have both forced and regular subtitles

Post by luckyarmpit »

Description of problem or question:
Hello all, totally new to all of this (like you've never heard that before). Been digitizing my extensive DVD and Blu-Ray collection for a Plex server I recently built. I'm running into subtitle problems with a movie that has both forced subtitles and regular subtitles. Wanted to see if there was a way around my issue or if I'm just doing something blatantly wrong.

Steps to reproduce the problem (If Applicable):
The movie example is District 9. I used MakeMKV to rip the movie - including all subtitle tracks - into an .mkv file. I then instructed HandBrake to burn-in the alien subtitles, and make the regular subtitles available (but not forced). The alien subtitles work perfectly, as do the regular subtitles. However, when the regular subtitles are on and an alien speaks, the subtitles display twice... sort of like superimposed on each other.

I've tried all combinations of the subtitle tracks available on the Blu-Ray but haven't had any luck. Wondering if I'm doing something wrong or if that's just the way this movie is, and I'll need to search out an .srt file that omits the alien language? Thanks in advance!

HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):
1.2.2

Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):
Windows 10 Pro 64-bit, both the ripping machine (Alienware M17 R4) and the Plex server (custom-built desktop)

Thanks mduell, I'll check to see if my most recent attempt is in the logs; if not I'll attempt again and post the log. Sorry for screwing up my first post. ;)

Congratulations on finding a bluray that actually uses the forced flag in subtitle tracks!

To do what you want, you would need to set either track 1 or 3 as your first subtitle track (MakeMKV separated the forced titles into their own tracks), then the corresponding "full" track (0 or 2) as a second track, and do not burn any in. And disable the Foreign Audio Search track; while it found a correct track, it also defaulted to burning that track into the video, so it was there all the time.

With that, MOST players will display the forced subtitles by default (because it's the first track), with the ability to switch to switch to the full track when you want to.

Leave it to me to have the unusual problem or find the oddball issue. Thanks so much for that information! I'll give it another whirl with your suggestions and let my Plex peeps know that you can either have the alien/forced subtitles or ALL subtitles.

Now that I know this, I'll use this approach on my other Blu-Ray discs that have forced subtitles. Thanks again!
