Am seeing the exact same error - running the script in OSX, with self-built ffmpeg including everything but the kitchen sink.

Does the above error output a full FFMPEG command? and if so can you run it and tell me what error FFMPEG is throwing that's causing this to fail?

[morpheus2n2]

I have fixed it now, I reinstalled python and all the pre-requirements and now seems to work with out problem so not sure what coursed it.

[mdhiggins]

Hm strange, but glad to hear its working.

Reopen if the issue crops up again

Just in case, this is the error I get when entering the ffmpeg command manually:

And to follow up - removing "-sub_charenc UTF-8" made it work as intended.

Commenting out line 174 in converter/avcodecs.py ( #optlist.extend(['-sub_charenc', 'UTF-8'])
) has the script doing subtitle exports properly on my setup now.

[mdhiggins]

Just pushed and update that should prevent the sub_charenc option from being passed when attempting to make an external .SRT file
