Auto Spanish titles? makemkv MIB 4K

Post by HittiittitiH » Mon Oct 25, 2021 2:06 am

How do I get makemkv to process men in black to only show english subtitle when spanish is spoken?


I checked the english subtitle and (forced) but no english subtitle is not popping up for when tommy lee jones speaks spanish.

What am I doing wrong?

I assume you're talking about around 00:04:30 into the movie. On the 1080 blu-ray, those subtitles are burned into the movie from the studio; they aren't a separate subtitle track. I don't have MiB on 4K, so I can't comment how it works on the UHD.

Not all of the Spanish dialog is subtitled; only about half of it. Most of it is incidental. K's instructions to the captured people starts having subtitles. On the DVD version, they're hard-coded into the video, not a track.

Ok, yup, there are no burn in subtitles in the 4k disk of mib1. I popped in the 1080p blu-ray disc in and it has burned in subtitles.

I left a 1 star review & explaining that 4k UHD disk has no burned in english subtitles of the spanish part for MIB1 on amazon reviews as thats where I bought the set from.

This is very upsetting and bogus sh*t,

But, don't you know that Americans are all supposed to be fluent in Spanish now? Back when the DVD and BD came out, that wasn't the case. :)

I've got very little experience with 4K, but I have seen a few messages about the subtitles being screwed up on HDR and DV movies.

To fix it yourself you could try to rip them to text with AVISubDetector.
