No subtitle added from an iso DVD

Post by JefReb »

Description of problem or question:
Hello. I have an iso file from a DVD I have.
When I use VLC player with this iso file I have the possibility to active or inactive Subtitle.

Now I use Handbrake to code an MKV file from the ISO Dvd file.
And when I use VLC to display the MKV file, I am unable to have any subtitle.

Hope my english is correct to explain the problem.
ISO --> VLC = ok subtitle available
ISO --> Handbrake --> MKV --> VLC = subtitle unavailable.

Steps to reproduce the problem (If Applicable):
YES

HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):
Version 1.3.3

Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):
Windows 10 version 2004

Re: No subtitle added from an iso DVD

According to the log, the first subtitle in the track you selected comes in Chapter 18. Did you select the correct one?

Most subtitles I've seen for dubbed material have two separate tracks. One is "all subtitles", the other being only those things that were NOT dubbed. This is referred to as "foreign audio" or "forced" in handbrake.

Thank's for your answer Woodstock,
It's working now. I only have to uncheck "forced only" in sub-title of Handbrake before encoding.
But the trouble I had is that it's possible to choose disable or not in sub-title menu of VLC when using iso file (DVD).
But There is no way to able or disable in sub-title menu of VLC when using MKV done.

Anyway, it's working now and it's not a Handbrake trouble.
Thank's again

Handbrake can set or not set a "default" flag for the track, but whether or not a player respects that is up to the player. Most will play the first subtitle track that matches the selected language, unless you disable subtitles completely.

The most reliable method I've found for dealing with this is to make sure that first track is the one I'll usually want to see.
