Preserving TV subtitles with exporting

Postby alexwilmac » 25 Nov 2013 19:44

Hello,
I was so happy to find, in this new 2.1.1 release, a complete section about exporting and also managing subtitles.
I use VLS either under OsX or Win but I wasn't able to convert my TV recordings from satellite without losing the subtitles.
I've tried many combinations in encapsulating and in the type of TV subtitles (there are two choices: DVB and T.140 which I suppose corresponds to Teletext subtitles).
But I haven't succeed any way.
It's something I do wrong or it's a bug of VLC?
I really need to convert my TV recordings to try and edit by other software to cut scenes. But I cannot lose the subtitles...

Thanks,
Alex

Usually, TV programmes got both DVB-S and Teletext subtitles. I suppose they match, respectively, VLC's DVB and T-140. But both of them are lost after conversion.

T140 and teletext are not matching. But DVBs should be kept. Try to activate the sout-all option
