Re: Keeping subtitles when compressing with Handbrake...

When exporting the .sub/.idx with BDSup2Sub, the "Export only forced" can't be checked. What would cause that? And for Step 7: "7.Mux in vobsub subtitle to HB generated mkv file with MkvmergeGUI. (part of mkvtoolnix)." Do I need to add both the ".sub" and ".idx&quo...

Re: Keeping subtitles when compressing with Handbrake...

@bling2ming Thanks for the guide! I will definitely attempt this and see what kind of results I get. My next question--I don't care about having all the subtitles--I only want them when people are talking in a foreign language (I believe these are called forced). When converting the movie with MakeM...

Keeping subtitles when compressing with Handbrake...

I'm ripping some movies from my Blu-ray collection. From my understanding, Blu-ray subtitles are different from DVD subtitles. When I create an MKV with MakeMKV, I usually select the English subtitles plus the "forced" subtitles option. When I open the movie with Handbrake, the subtitle dr...

Re: Forced Subtitles question

I'm in the same boat. I wanted to rip District 9 as well and noticed it had lots of English subtitles. I put it aside hoping I would find a similar post on here. Are there any solutions to this?

Re: Can't rip The Great Raid

Can't rip The Great Raid

It seems to get to 100% then I get an error saying the mkv wasn't saved. I've attached the error log. I'm using 1.6.2. Do you need anything else?

Re: Black bars on left and right sides of video...

I just checked and the .mkv file created by MakeMKV and it does have black bars on the left and right sides of the video. Are those simply part of the original video?

Black bars on left and right sides of video...

I'm using the 1.6 beta version. I just ripped Rambo (2008) and it seemed to work just fine--no black bars anywhere. But then I ripped Fanboys and Remember Me and both of these movies had black bars on the left and right sides of the video. Is this normal? I plan to use Handbrake to compress these us...
