Adding a Subtitle to a Bluray that originally had None - Does not Display

[maczones]

I have a bluray that came with no subtitles. Added a srt subtitle using tsMuxeR, swapped the m2ts, mpls and clp files but playing back the bluray, I have not subtitle to select from. Not sure if the problem is from not having a subtitle originally, that you would normally replace or a menu issue. Has anyone else seen this problem previously with some suggestions to correct it?

Thanks;

I would suggest you remux as MKV using mkvtoolnix and you can easily add a srt or pgs subtitle. Far more flexible that m2ts

@netmask56. Thanks for the reply and suggestions but trying to keep intact the menu's. I believe there is a way to change the BD structure to incorporate the added sub but just need some advice doing it. Tried using the BDedit discussion on this site explaining how to activate the sub but did not work for me. Hopefully more suggestions will follow to get me there.

I can’t really figure out BDEDIT, but the program is very powerful and you can use it to change and create everything. There’s a user named Lowpro who authors complete Blu-rays using only BDEDIT and Photoshop.

@Neo-1, thanks for the advice and link. Looks intensive but will explore it further to gain more traction on how to solve my issue.
