I have used handbrake before and it is little different to using ffmpeg. I have not successfully found a way of converting the DVB subtitles though. I put that down to the timing source used by the subtitles being lost and hence not supported. I did get burnt in subtitles to work with MP4 using ffmpeg but not switchable at playback. Basically there don't seem to be any correct options to choose with Handbrake.
What I want to do is a simple copy of the MPEG2 transport stream (.ts)into the new box or attached disc and play back with switchable subtitles from the .ts without any transcoding and not having EPG etc files that would have been there in the new box.
I have a Sony TV but when presented with a disc or USB containing a single programme .ts it will not display the subtitle stream although the DVB subtitles are perfectly readable on VLC or ProjectX.
