[CBS] Getting errors on subtitles #9971
Comments
|
ffmpeg doesn't support ttml subtitles. |
|
Good catch. Maybe a better error message in such cases? |
|
yes, we should make sure that youtube-dl allow to embed only for subtitles supported by ffmpeg and the container and maybe add fixup by embeding in mkv or convert the subtitle before embeding. |
|
I prefer just an error message instead of converting subtitles automatically. Maybe some people want to embed srt while others vtt. By the way, can TTML subtitles be merged into mkv? |
|
Is there any way to request a different format of subtitle that FFMPEG can work with? |

Similar error here with TTML subs from PBS:
