Re: Confusion: Forced Subtitles
Clear as mud? :D Mmh, some of your statements appear not to be entirely correct. AFAIK there are (at least) three methods for forced subs on BDs: 1. a separate track that only has forced subs (the items themselves may be flagged as such or not) 2. a separate track that has only forced subs but is n...

Re: Hide and Seek
Usually each variation has its own playlist so if you select this, you can make an mkv of that version. You should be able to determine this by title length or if you're on Windows by using BDInfo.

Re: Not seeing Na'vi subtitles in Avatar 1 & 2 4k/bd release
Avatar 1 has been discussed to death as one example where there's actually forced items inside the subtitle stream. When you check the box for
Subtitles PGS English (forced only)
MakeMKV will rip them as an extra stream to your MKV. I would suspect the same happening with Avatar 2.

Re: "Friendly" drive names?
MakeMKV has the ability to show both the drive name and the name of the disc, as both are displayed on the screen before you actually begin to read the disc in MakeMKV. What my suggestion is, is to replace [random drive name] with a name of your own choosing Until then you could assign fitting driv...

Re: Subtitles are Not Being Extracted
I wanted to post screenshots of MakeMKV and MediaInfo of the resulting MKV, but it seems I'm not allowed to post pictures on this forum as I'm a new member. It's really good then that you can simply select View > Text in Mediainfo and copy/paste it into your post (in between code tags preferrably).

Re: Subtitles
IIRC VLC playback according to the default flag being set is also dependent on a default language being selected in VLC's settings.

MakeMKV Batch Converter on Windows 11?
Since the other thread on this is old and flooded with links to BatchMKV (which I consider an inferior piece of software) I'm wondering: Has anyone been able to get

to work under Windows 11?

Re: Subtitles on LG TV
Right. Still, seems to be supported by Subtitle Edit so you could OCR + convert and add that as an additional (external) subtitle stream.

Re: Subtitles on LG TV
As dcoke22 mentioned it's quite possible your TV only supports text-based subs like SRT and SSA but no image-based like Vobsub and PGS. In that case you would have to OCR them with Subtitle Edit or Subextractor.

Re: Flag force/default for subtitles - Windows
The header editor of MKVToolnix allows to remove/add them without remuxing the file.

Re: converting dts to dolby
Don't bother with the "Live Streaming" version. Actually, if you still want to go with WDTV that's the best version with the most file support and less bugs. Still, I'm also annoyed to no end that Western Digital discontinued the series instead of releasing a new player with Kodi or somet...

Re: Anybody had much luck playing 4K UHD and 1080p Blu-Ray rips on Samsung QLEDS?
You'd also need to take into account that Samsung dropped support for DTS audio in 20180 or so.

Re: Subtitles. Subtitles everywhere. How do you select?
I'm still very new to this, and am mainly asking how I can strip descriptive audio from an existing backup, or re-run the backup in such a way where it won't even be copied over (not sure if that's possible). Well, you could start by creating a new thread on audio selection instead of posting into ...

Re: Forced subtitles in 2022
Yes, but if a forced sub IS identified and you've set
setFirstForcedSubtitleTrackAsDefault="true"
in your config file, it will be set to default which also displays the sub automatically in many cases.
