Hi,

ripping subtitles in the PGS format works, but I can't find a way to extract the PGS tracks from the MKV file out to SUP files so I can process them into text files (OCR). My suggestion is that you add an option to extract them directly to SUP files. I realize it would be best if players could play PGS directly from MKV, but currently that's not very common, unfortunately.

Thanks for a great app!

Did you try to demux it with mkvmerge gui renaming the output file to SUP?

I'm looking at mkvmerge and it doesn't seem to have an option to demux. I also checked out mkvextract (and mkvextractgui) but the gui pops up a warning saying it can't extract these kind of tracks and mkvextract command line does the same thing. I can extract it as raw using mkvextract, but that doesn't seem to be a compatible SUP file, I tried to rename it but applications don't recognize it as a valid SUP file.
