My conversion profile looks like this:
<mkvSettings
ignoreForcedSubtitlesFlag="false"
setFirstSubtitleTrackAsDefault="false"
/>
so that regular subs streams are set to off (default - no, forced - no), however, if a stream is forced I also would like to have it flagged as default too. Currently MakeMKV only sets the forced flag and thus VLC will not show the sub automatically. Is there a way to do this with conversion profiles?
Also, when there's two subs on the BD
de regular
de forced
and both subtitles and subtitles (forced only) is checked, the forced sub will be muxed twice into the mkv.

Re: Forced subtitle flag... again
The only way I can think of is to change "setFirstSubtitleTrackAsDefault" back to true and then add "-10:forced" to your default selection string to make the forced subtitle track the first track.
The potential issue is that if you have a movie without any forced subtitles, then the first standard subtitle track would be marked as default.

Which is exactly the reason I'm asking this here hoping for Mike to answer.

Re: Forced subtitle flag... again
For the first one, I'm thinking of adding a "setFirstForcedSubtitleTrackAsDefault" option. Do you think it will be good enough?
As for duplicate tracks, I'm still looking at your dump file. Thanks for the wait.

Re: Forced subtitle flag... again
Yes, that should do it, thanks. Maybe we could additionally set flags in the properties pane of the GUI where currently Name, language, etc. can be changed?

I'm having the same issue, and yes having these subtitle options in the GUI would be much better.
Thanks.

This is NOT yet in 1.8.1, sorry. Should be in 1.8.2 .Chetwood wrote:Yes, that should do it, thanks.
Re: Forced subtitle flag... again
Well, it's not too bad cause this can be fixed using MKVToolnix's header editor. But what about the forced track being muxed twice?

The profile option is added in 1.8.2 and is now on by default (forced track will be marked as default if exists). Also default and forced track flags may be set in GUI as well.
Re: Forced subtitle flag... again
Nice, gonna check it out. What about a forced track being added twice to the MKV, is this fixed?
