 Posted: Sun, 4th Jul 2010 20:16 Post subject: MKV, Haali, and fucking English subtitles |
|
 |
So annoying. I use Windows Media Centre on Vista (never bothered to install W7 lolz) and whenever a MKV file loads that has subtitles built into it, then they appear in WMC. I have to go down to the Haali icon, right click and select no subtitles.
In my Haali settings, I've set eng,off;*,eng which I beleive should disable any english subtitles, and translate any non-english scenes to english subs.
Is it that the majority of groups don't tag their subs as "english" within the MKVs? or am I doing something wrong? It's a pain in the ass!

When you mux a mkv file you can set subtitles to be on by default. If you use mkvmergeGUI, the first subtitle stream you add is set to default automatically, you need to manually set it to be off by default.
Since scene groups try to do things as fast as possible (x264 settings like subme=6, mbtree=off, b-frames=3) they just can't be bothered with setting the subs to off by default.

What do you use for decoding? ffdshow? Just disable subtitles there, and enable manually on movies you want to see them. Unfortunately, the subtitles selection filters in Haali are not reliable at all. That setting in MKV is actually useful for forcing forced subtitles (like, for example, subtitles for non-English parts). But as me7 said, they are misused often...

VLC = outdated, single-threaded, buggy decoder from 2008

Can you post a screenshot of a multithreaded VLC? Because I read a forum post from 2010 that the developers can't make VLC work with ffmpeg-mt (and I tested the latest nightly build).

Yeah, if it tops at 50% on a dual core at that scene, then it is one thread. Not sure, why it is registered like that in the task manager.
