BD Ripper (3D Plus) Getting subtitles in file with remux

[olc]

When I chose the remux mode for ripping BD, the render directly yo video is not there. Is there some way to get a subtitle track, especially the one with forced subtitles, into a single remux mode mkv file or does remux always produce the sub and idx files?

Remux is a process of re-multiplexing (re-packing) the content from one container into another one, without any modifications to the coded stream. That's why nothing could be rendered into the video stream - there's no rendering process involved.
As it stands now, DVDFab yields subs only in idx/sub format, and you need third party soft (e.g. SubtitleWorkshop to convert it into MKV-friendly format and mux it in with something like mkvmerge). It will take minutes.... DVDFab however, will be handling subs differently... soon, according to developers.

May I suggest that it would be a nice option to be able to put the subtitles into the single mkv file when using remux.

Here's the issue. Some films, like The Girl Who Played With Fire have an English audio track and a foreign language one (Swedish in this case). I would like to make a faithful rip of the movie while having the option of viewing in English or viewing in Swedish with English subtitles. Remux makes a separate sub file which my BD player doesn't use.

Using audiocopy and ac3 modes restrict me to a less faithful copy and more important, to one language or the other.

Surely this feature could be incorporated with remux with the option to keep both audio tracks and subtitles.

As one member on the forums is found of pointing out, this feature has been on the request list for over a year. You should probably learn how to use the other free programs for now and then be pleasantly surprised some day when DVDFab can mux the subtitles for you in one step.

GUILTY AS CHARGED

But my statements below are correct:-

It has been well over a year
There has been absolutely NIL response from the developers
The FREE software has handled this fine for over a year with additional features requested of Fab and again not acknowledged
It is becoming more of an issue since users are becoming more au fait with the capabilities of the MKV container.
There is still an active DVD marketplace out there. Blu-Ray is not the be all and end all.

Do you have a good link to what software I need and how to use it?

I would like to get in 2 sudio tracks and Englsh subtitels in foreign movies where there are both original language and dubbed English tracks.

As this is a DVD Fab forum, it is an inappropriate place to ask such a question, poor ettiquete and against the Forum rules and spirit.

Unfortunately, you will have to do your own research.

That's a load

I'd agree if I didn't purchase this software. But I did so expecting something useful and I'd say necessary isn't unreasonable. I'd be pleasantly surprised if Ford stuck a V-12 in my Focus; but I'd EXPECT them to put seats! LOL.

Actually, I don't use DVDFab for anything but copying to the HD. I'd love to use their ripper but the options are too few and nothing I own uses the .sub format. I use **** to transcode to a smaller high quality file with subtitles I can turn on and off. Seriously, the subtitles and an expert mode are the only thing holding me back.
