no option to switch subtitles off in command line for embedded subtitles #603

Open shalnoff opened 6 years ago

shalnoff commented 6 years ago

Reproduction:

  1. take any file with embedded subtitles (mkv or so)
  2. play the file Subtitles start playing back simultaneously whatever option you choose.

it is possible to switch them off by clicking X, but impossible to remove them by adding option to command-line on start.

"-t none" or so would be great to have ^___^

PS thank you for great player!

+1 to this! 👍

This also effects videos with external srt files. I'd suggest adding a --hide-subtitles command line option. See pull request: #699

I can't seem to reproduce this with any video files with embedded subtitles. Can either of you give the terminal output of playing a file with the -sI command line options?
