HandbrakeCLI hardcode srt

[sina2015]

Hello,

I would like to hardcode subtitle in .srt file to .mp4 video using HandBrakeCLI.exe. The srt file is saved as UTF-8.
So, I have a small test file "1.mp4", and would like subtitle "1.srt" to be hardcoded in a resulting "1 encoded.mp4" file. All the files are placed in "C:\tmp2" folder.
It works using VidCoder, but I can't seem to make it work via HandBrakeCLI.exe. I have 64-bit Win7 machine.

So, first, I tried this command line:
HandBrakeCLI.exe -i "C:\tmp2\1.mp4" -o "C:\tmp2\1 encoded.mp4" --preset="High Profile" --srt-file "C:\tmp2\1.srt" --srt-codeset UTF-8 --srt-burn

But I got "ERROR: Could not open the SRT subtitle file 'C:tmp21.srt'". So it seems like Handbrake missed all the backslashes in srt file path? Does anybody have a clue what is going on here?

After this, I placed HandBrakeCLI.exe in the same "C:\tmp2" folder, and tried specifying subtitle file "1.srt" without path:
HandBrakeCLI.exe -i "C:\tmp2\1.mp4" -o "C:\tmp2\1 encoded.mp4" --preset="High Profile" --srt-file "1.srt" --srt-codeset UTF-8 --srt-burn

This worked, and I got my "1 encoded.mp4" video without any errors, but also without any subtitles
Please, what am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

Use

--srt-file "C:\\tmp2\\1.srt"

Thank you, the command:

HandBrakeCLI.exe -i "C:\tmp2\1.mp4" -o "C:\tmp2\1 encoded.mp4" --preset="High Profile" --srt-file "C:\\tmp2\\1.srt" --srt-codeset UTF-8 --srt-burn

resulted in "1 encoded.mp4", but still no subtitles.

I repeat, the VidCoder works on the same files - so I would assume my arguments are faulty. Unfortunately, Google can't really find any examples on correct CLI argument format for this case, so I'm asking here. Does anybody have experience on burning srt to the video using HandBrakeCLI?

Works fine here. Both Windows Vista HB x32 and Windows 8.1 HB x64.

Thank you for taking the time and making the video.
Your comment prompted me to suspect first on the HandBrakeCLI version, and then on its setup. I then realized that I didn't unzipped subfolders (doc and fonts), just the HandBrakeCLI.exe. When I unzipped fonts folder along the exe, everything works fine )

Thanks again for your help!
