I think we're confusing each other here

Here is a print screen of mkvmerge with District 9 as the movie. The correct subtitle track is 2 and as ID 4 is the 2nd subtitle track I assume that its the correct one.

I don't really want subs to always be on, just the forced ones. For foreign movies yeah, but im mostly talking about western films that have parts of foreign language. Just to confirm, r the steps I wrote above correct? I don't have a way to test just at the moment. Am I also right in assuming the p...

It turns out my Dune HD Max removed the feature of allowing forced subs in MKV. Great.

just to make sure im doing this correctly;

I open Mkvmerge GUI
Add the movie
click on the subtitle track I wanted to be forced
click the drop down menu for 'forced track flag' and select 'yes'
start muxing.

Is that it?

Embedding forced subtitles requires that the file/movie be re-encoded. Handbrake, Xvid4psp, ripbot, etc. That's not true at all. You only need to re-encode if the subs need to be hardcoded into the video stream. With MKVs that's unnecessary since it supports flags that can be set to turn on the str...

Any links or guides? How do you do it?

Hi all Ive read several threads about subtitles and forced subtitles but I was hoping someone could take the time to write a step by step guide showing how to embed english subtitles when foreign language is detected. Ive got several films where it goes to a foreign section and I have to manually tu...

Hi all Ive been happily using MakeMKV for a couple of months now, great program. The program now says its expired but I thought the beta was free? The web site states I can uninstall and reinstal the latest version to reset it but that hasn't worked for me. Any tips? update: I found this key which i...

as this thread has gone a little off topic ill continue

Any thoughts on when MakeMKV might be out of beta?

ok cool, thanks.

Is it just that the label is wrong or is the problem with the audio track?

Just wondering if I should hold off on ripping any more discs for now.

seems odd that DD TruHD is labelled as 5.1 only. But then again it seems odd DTS HD is simply called 'lossless' too.

HI guys

I meant 2 different films from 2 different blurays.

I dont mean when I switch audio tracks, i just mean when I skip forward a few mins on the same audio track & film I don't have sound for a short while.

Im hoping someone can help me here. When I rip a Bluray with a DTS HD audio track the resulting audio in the MKV shows as 'Lossless', and works fine. Ive been told in another thread this lossless track is the DTS HD file but labelled differently for some reason. But when I try the same with a DD Tru...

do you guys think its worth waiting until makemkv is totally finished before ripping collections of Blurays? Ive just started mine and was thinking of selling the disks after but might hold off for a while as I keep seeing issues on these forums.

thanks

My pc is connected to my Av receiver which supports HD audio formats.
