Devede does not load subtitles from matroska #40

I have produced a matroska file from a blue ray disk (with handbrake), then produced a dvd iso with this new version of devede (great, the old version did not work at all). All is perfect apart from it does not recognize and load subtitles from the matroska file. All this operation is necessary because it is often difficult find a DVD title when only the Blue-ray is available...

Still valid for 4.8.9.

This is not really a solution, but mkvtoolnix can be used to extract subtitles from mkv files which then can be used with devedeng.

For example.

$ mkvmerge -i movie.mkv
File 'movie.mkv': container: Matroska
Track ID 0: video (MPEG-4p10/AVC/h.264)
Track ID 1: audio (AC-3)
Track ID 2: audio (AC-3)
Track ID 3: subtitles (SubRip/SRT)
Track ID 4: subtitles (VobSub)
Chapters: 2 entries

And then to grab the subtitles from track 3.

mkvextract tracks movie.mkv 3:subtitles.srt
