Hi there !
I'm building a MAC-based media center with the following equipment:
- MacBook Pro from which I open my iTunes library stored on the network (NAS)
- Apple TV 3
I've a collection of DVDs (I own) I'd like to convert in M4V.
For this I'm using HandBrake and select the Apple TV 3 profile.
For each DVD, I'd like to keep:
- Video steam (of course 🙂 )
- Original audio steam
- Local audio stream (french in my case)
- Local subtitles (french in my case)
- Forced local (french in my case) subtitles (sometimes they are a dedicated track, sometimes tags are used in the main subtitle track to force their display even if the track track is turned off)
My concern is about the subtitles. On most of the DVDs they are in VobSub (bitmap image) format.
And I'm aware that currently iTunes, QuickTime, Apple TV, ... does not support this format (yet?).
I'd like to encode everything (> 200 movies) first time right. So my question is the following:
Can we hope that in a (near) future, M4V container will support the soft VobSub (bmp) subtitles?
Best regards,
A Bandicoot.
