Forced-subtitles not being detected (?)

[rhapsodians]

Hi Don,

Hope you're well and enjoying the summer?

Quick issue has me stumped and probably user-error but I've run a test transcoding of the "The Da Vinci Code" DVD for a friend and the new ruby scripts seem to be missing the forced-subtitle sequences when .mkv/.mp4 files are produced. (Running the latest Ruby scripts with HandBrakeCLI 0.10.2)

I did two quick tests to check that the forced subtitles were burned in for the French sequence in Ch. 3:

Test 1
transcode-video --crop 74:74:0:0 --quick --chapters 3 --mp4 --force-subtitle scan 'The Da Vinci Code (2006).mkv'

Test 2
transcode-video --crop 74:74:0:0 --quick --chapters 3 --mp4 --burn-subtitle scan --force-subtitle scan 'The Da Vinci Code (2006).mkv'

HandBrakeCLI failed to detect a suitable candidate for forced-subtitles on both of the above.

[15:53:31] Subtitle track 2 (id 0x2) 'English': 71 hits (19 forced)
[15:53:31] Subtitle track 3 (id 0x3) 'English': 80 hits (0 forced)
[15:53:31] No candidate detected during subtitle scan

The following did work (explicitly telling HandBrakeCLI to scan for and burn them in):
Test 3
transcode-video --crop 74:74:0:0 --quick --chapters 3 --mp4 -H subtitle=scan -H subtitle-forced -H subtitle-burned --dry-run 'The Da Vinci Code (2006).mkv'

Test 4
Similarly, the older bash scripts worked when the following was run:
transcode-video.sh --find-forced burn --chapters 3 --fast 'The Da Vinci Code (2006).mkv'

In tests 3/4, HandBrakeCLI picked up the following and correctly burned-in the forced subtitles.
[14:36:24] * subtitle track 1, English (track 2, id 0x2) Picture [VOBSUB] -> Render/Burn-in, Forced Only

Have I used the incorrect settings on the Ruby scripts or is there a bug lingering somewhere?
Many thanks,
Joe Hurley

@rhapsodians I hope you're having a great summer, too, Joe. And thanks for the detailed bug report!

I think the problem you're having is the subtlety of burning and forcing subtitles being two different things. My understanding is that you want to burn any forced subtitle from your source into your output video. However, your sample command lines are definitely not doing that. Those commands are trying to trying to extract the subtitle. This is because you're using --force-subtitle scan instead of --burn-subtitle scan.

Try this instead:

transcode-video --crop 74:74:0:0 --quick --chapters 3 --mp4 --burn-subtitle scan 'The Da Vinci Code (2006).mkv'

Notice that it does not contain --force-subtitle scan anywhere.

Hi Don, so far so good summer-wise (and we're actually getting an OK summer in the London area compared to back home in Ireland!)

Thanks for the explanation above too - I do understand the difference between burning and forcing subtitles but perhaps I may have to delve into the Ruby to see what you (and HBCLI) actually mean to do (further education for me to get the semantics right).

You're also correct in my objective: I want to find/burn any forced subtitle into the output video track.

I've run your suggested command above and it doesn't burn-in the forced subtitles. HBCLI appears not to find a suitable subtitle candidate in the scan even though the previous line shows 19 forced flags are in subtitle track 2 (id 0x2).

The output shows:

Encoding: task 1 of 2, 100.00 %[17:15:24] mpeg2video-decoder done: 0 frames, 0 decoder errors, 0 drops
[17:15:24] Subtitle track 2 (id 0x2) 'English': 71 hits (19 forced)
[17:15:24] Subtitle track 3 (id 0x3) 'English': 80 hits (0 forced)
[17:15:24] No candidate detected during subtitle scan
[17:15:24] starting job
[17:15:24] rendersub: no subtitle marked for burn

There are definitely English (forced) subtitles in Ch. 3 which are correctly detected/burned-in when you tell HBCLI to include them (test 3 above) or using the old scripts (test 4).

I'm curious to figure out the correct command to run and why the old bash --find-forced burn seems to work ...

[lisamelton]

@rhapsodians Hmmmm, sounds like a bug then. Sorry about that.

What does your command line look like if you add --dry-run? That should show you what the Ruby-based tools are telling HandBrakeCLI to do.

[rhapsodians]

Don't worry ... I like finding stuff like this as I can learn a lot from it too :-)

Your command output is below followed by the explicit HandbrakeCLI input I used ... the only difference is the inclusion of --subtitle-forced in the latter (which works)

Joes-MBP:Rips joe$ transcode-video --crop 74:74:0:0 --quick --chapters 3 --mp4 --burn-subtitle scan --dry-run 'The Da Vinci Code (2006).mkv'

[lisamelton]

@rhapsodians Thanks. I only care about the first case where it's not working.

And, oddly enough, that should be the correct command line.

Now, what does the output HandBrakeCLI command line look like if you add --debug to the input command line using the old transcode-video.sh script?

[rhapsodians]

Also, just ran your command with the extra -H subtitle-forced option and that works (as it generated the same HBCLI command as the explicit one I came up with.

The big difference is in the output:

Encoding: task 1 of 2, 100.00 %[18:01:40] mpeg2video-decoder done: 0 frames, 0 decoder errors, 0 drops
[18:01:40] Subtitle track 2 (id 0x2) 'English': 71 hits (19 forced)
[18:01:40] Subtitle track 3 (id 0x3) 'English': 80 hits (0 forced)
[18:01:40] Found a subtitle candidate with id 0x2 (contains forced subs)
[18:01:40] starting job

So perhaps this is where the problem lies?

[lisamelton]

@rhapsodians The --subtitle-forced option shouldn't be necessary unless the HandBrake team changed something in version 0.10.2. In fact, adding the --subtitle-forced option should not burn in the subtitle. It should try to add the subtitle as a separate track. Which is not what you want. And that looks exactly like what's happening based on your output.

[rhapsodians]

Hi Don,

This is the output from the old scripts ...

title_options             =

level_options             = 
rate_factor               = 16
frame_rate_options        = --rate 25

output                    = The Da Vinci Code (2006).mp4

HandBrakeCLI --chapters 3 --markers --encoder x264 --encoder-preset fast --encopts vbv-maxrate=2000:vbv-bufsize=1000:crf-max=25 --quality 16 --rate 25 --audio 1,1 --aencoder ca_aac,copy --crop 0:0:0:0 --strict-anamorphic --subtitle scan --subtitle-forced --subtitle-burned --input 'The Da Vinci Code (2006).mkv' --output 'The Da Vinci Code (2006).mp4' 2>&1 | tee -a 'The Da Vinci Code (2006).mp4.log'

[rhapsodians]

... which also works as expected (English forced subtitles burned-in when they speak French for a few sentences)

[lisamelton]

@rhapsodians I need your input command line for that transcode-video.sh output, please. Otherwise it's not useful to me. Thanks.

[rhapsodians]

Sorry - I should have included this above ...

Here you are ...

@rhapsodians OK, I was wrong. It seems the --subtitle-forced is required. Which makes no sense. Because I tested this several times myself for the initial release. I'm not sure if something changed or I just fucked up that last fix.

No matter what, I'll fix it. But it will have to wait until later today. Sorry about that.

Thanks again for all the diagnostics!

[rhapsodians]

Don't worry Don as all of us out here have a huge debt of gratitude to pay to you for giving us these scripts in the first place! I can't help myself with the diagnostics (just interesting for me) and I learned how to do it at the great Fruit Company many, many years ago ... hence my twitter/gmail username derivation (from a special project back in the day!)

Thanks again.
Kind regards,
Joe

[lisamelton]

@rhapsodians I didn't realize you worked at Apple, although your name now seems more familiar. :)

I lied about waiting until later today. The fix is trivial. I'm testing it now.

[lisamelton]

@rhapsodians OK, the fix seems to work. Once I make sure it doesn't break anything, I'll check it in and re-release the Gem. Probably sometime after lunch (Pacific Time).
