Thanks again for the feedback DukeFleed. One last question, if I want to only change the name of an audio/subtitle track for a mkv file using mkvtoolnix, do I still have to choose multiplex? Always. That's not true. You can edit the Metadata of any track without remuxing. Oh, I didn't know. I alway...

2) Once I’ve identified the files I wish to keep, and rename them accordingly, I then process them via HandBrake (cropping as necessary), using the Matroska H.265 MKV 1080p30 preset, to compress the Video track only (I remove the audio/subtitles). As my preference is to have a compressed (but near-...

Always.

Subtitle Tracks For example, I was thinking of naming the subtitle track for the main feature " Main Feature (SDH) " or " Main Feature ". I'm not sure how else you can name a forced subtitle track other than " Forced ". When selecting a subtitle track in VLC, " - ...

I think the same as dcoke22.

Thanks for the feedback and all your help!

No problem.

Hi. I don't make .iso files of my ripped Blurays (I only have standard Blurays). I've only tried once, but I used imgbrun with Wine, and it worked fine. Then extract the entire unencrypted disk to a folder, then use imgburn. Read more here: https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=387...

Okay. Well thanks again for your help, I should be all set now. The only other thing I may do is try to turn a SDH sub track into a non-SDH sub track with subtitle edit. Basically, remove all text for the hearing impaired. Although, I want to see if this involves having to convert a PGS track to an...

If you end up getting the Dune HD Homatics Box R 4K Plus player, or one that supports PGS subtitles, would you then have a reason to use subtitle edit?

No, no reason.

But even if I did that, and found out that there are forced subtitles, I wouldn't be sure of the exact order of the subtitle tracks in the MakeMKV screen, and therefore which one to select/deselect. It's always the same order in all apps and on the disc and so you know which ones to (de)select! I a...

Okay, got it. Thanks! Why do you use subtitle edit? For example, do you convert your subtitles to another format? I understand all 4k Ultra HD Blu-rays have HDMV PGS subtitles. If so, then all my subtitles will be HDMV PSG format. Do you see any reason to convert them to another format and/or edit ...

For mkv's that have a forced subtitle track, are the forced subs also included in the main sub track every time? Yes. That Yes should be a No. I *think* it was John Wick where the forced subs had the language translated but the non-forced didn't. I don't remember if it didn't print anything at thos...

For example, can you turn a SDH version into a non SDH version?

No.

Yes.

Here is a screenshot of the main subs with captions. https://imgur.com/a/PL0EFC1 Here is a screenshot of the main subs without captions. https://imgur.com/a/GCEh33P I was asking which version do most people prefer? For example, I want to remove one of them with mkvtoolnix and wanted to ask your pre...

And what's stopping you from doing that BEFORE you rip the movie, so you can deselect unwanted subtitle tracks, not even ripping them with MakeMKV? And how do you know before ripping the disc? MakeMKV doesn't know which ones there are By playing back the disc before ripping it and cycling through t...
