set subtitle flag to default = no

[woody777]

Is there a way to always make subtitles have the default flag set to no? Currently, all of my rips set the default flag to yes, which means subtitles are always on in my player and I have to turn them off. These are just normal non-forced subtitles. I can easily change the flag in the header editor using MKVMerge, but is there an easier way using an advanced profile?

Code: Select all

ignoreForcedSubtitlesFlag      - never set "forced" flag for subtitle tracks. Default - true.
useISO639Type2T                - use ISO 639/2T instead of ISO 639/2B for language codes. Default - false.
setFirstAudioTrackAsDefault    - set "default" flag for a first audio track. Default - true.
setFirstSubtitleTrackAsDefault - set "default" flag for a first subtitle track. Default - true.

I would like to do this too but I don't understand how to add the option into a conversion profile I'm using below. Any help would be nice
