tsMuxer error Question

[jdreffner]

When adding subtitles to an MKV file in tsMuxer I get the following error: Can't find ttf file for font A

Does anyone have a way to fix this?

Thanks,
Jim

Are you using tsmuxer for mac osx? I guess it wont work that well then.

I found a fix!

I had to use the Windows version of tsMuxeR, but I run it from a "bottle" in Crossover. I don't have to leave the Mac OS and I don't have to install Windows. It works perfectly! I hope this helps another.

Im using the latest tsMuxeR for Windows and I can't figure out how to get the fonts to be outlined or have a shadow on them. Could someone please fill this novice in please? Thanks!

Please don't open a new thread for a similar issue,i moved your thread post here,just continue here with any other font related issues with tsmuxer.

why not use mkvtoolnix ?

why not use mkvtoolnix ?

I guess the OP want to output a blu-ray/m2ts.

Correct. I need to output the file as ADVHC so it can be burned as a Blu-ray disc. So, tsMuxeR is choosing the font, size, and color of the subtitles. I just don't see a way to make the subs outlined and adding a slight shadow would make them so much easier to read too. I'm finding it tough to believe that tsMuxeR doesn't let you do this, so I'm hoping that I'm just too dumb to see it and someone could advise me on how to do this.

Thanks to all of the responses.

By the way, is it possible to use mkvtooknix to process the subtitles earlier, and then have tsMuxeR simply "pass them through" when making an ADVHC file? Thanks
