Srt subtitle extracted from EIA 608/708 still retain Closed Captioning format with the "Fontface monospace" stuff. Normal srt subtitles don't have that. During playback, the subtitle stays in the upper left corner and is not adjustable like a normal srt sub. Can you fix it so it behaves like a true srt subtitle? Thanks.

The subtitles are correctly extracted.
If you do not like the formatting, remove it in Subtitle edit.

Files with two video streams:

The video encoding and cup previews always show stream 1, even if stream 0 is selected.

When you cut/join such a file, both streams are preserved in the cuts/joins, which makes sense.

The previews in cut search cut points & preview, chapters video and various crop also show only stream 1.

What about all the "Various" options like crop when the two streams have different resolutions?
Metadata crop only works for stream 0.
Metadata rotate for both.
Maybe a text on the Various page could inform about the limitations of files with multiple video streams!

Videos with several video tracks are very rare because they are actually unmanageable, unless it is the same content but from different angles, for example.
If the content is different, how should the audio and subtitle tracks be handled?
I will still work on handling these video tracks correctly.

@ ProWo
NEW ffmpeg version 7.1.1
Would it make sense to offer an automatic install/update (W10/11 64 bit only) for ffmpeg?

I won't do that because there are too many different builds and I don't want to favor just one provider.

Just an error message at start of the app when the ffmpeg path does not match the entry in portable.config.
It's not a big problem because you can still adjust the path in the app.

To do this, the user must intentionally move the ffmpeg folder. But I will add an additional check.

Hi, I can't mux audio files as mp4 by itself. I could do it in older versions.

Understand!

I don't have such files either!
For testing purposes, I muxed the second stream in grayscale.

Some older movies have cutted scenes. These cuts do not have the national dubbing from the past.
In the DVD menu, you can choose between the short national version and the extended version including the cut parts in original video, original audio, and subtitles.
The DVD may use chapters to skip that scenes for the short version. However, this only requires one video stream.

But I had an animated movie in which all the scenes with signs or text were in English, German, and Italian.
I'm not sure how this DVD was structured. Perhaps separate streams or even chapters for that short scenes.

You are right. I'll restore this possibility.
