The version number in your log looks like you're trying to use the handbrake version packaged by Ubuntu. Subtitles are ONE of the many features known to be broken in that package.

Try the Ubuntu package available from the official handbrake download site. https://handbrake.fr/downloads.php

If you use HB from your Linux distro, contact your Linux distro for support with that build.
