Burned-in Subtitles #6

Closed jlhunter2008 closed 6 years ago

jlhunter2008 commented 6 years ago

How do I update my handbrake.properties file so it skips burned-in subtitles? For example, PGS and Bitmap. I can't seem to find anything in the Handbrake CLI documentation. I only want subtitles that I manually turn on when viewing that content.

I don't know. I haven't done much with subtitles. Is it the case that subtitles are burned into the source content that you are converting already, or is that handbrake is burning the subtitles in and they weren't there before?

Handbrake is burning the subtitles in and they weren’t there before.

What handbrake flags and options are you using?

Here is what is inside of the .properties file.

handbrake.options.subtitle-lang-list=eng

handbrake.options.native-language=eng

handbrake.options.subtitle=scan

handbrake.flags=--subtitle-default=1

handbrake.options.subtitle-forced=1

handbrake.options.subtitle-burned=native

handbrake.options.preset=High Profile

delete.original=false

The description for for --subtitle-burned is :

"Burn" the selected subtitle into the video track. If "subtitle" is omitted, the first track is burned. "subtitle" is an index into the subtitle list specified with '--subtitle' or "native" to burn the subtitle track that may be added by the 'native-language' option.

From the Handbrake docs

So your handbrake.options.subtitle-burned=native property is telling handbrake to burn the native subtitles into the video. Is there a reason why you set that property?
