Re: Subtitles set to be burnt it but not configured that way

You did not include the part of the log with the key bit of information - your output file type.

If the output file was MP4, you cannot include PGS subtitles in it EXCEPT as burned in. It is a limitation of the container.

Re: Subtitles set to be burnt it but not configured that way

Post by oscoder47 »

I can confirm this; if a preset has subtitle collection configured, not matter what the selection action and burn action are set to, whatever subtitle track is selected will be set to burn in. One I saw it check "burn in" on the track, but most of the time it checks "default track" which seems to have the effect of burning the subtitle track in. Unchecking everything on the subtitle track switches it back to passthrough, but it would be nice if the automatic selection could be passed through by default.
