Adding subs to blu-ray disc with zero existing sub tracks

I usually use multiAVCD to make changes to a blu-ray (removing trailers and copyright warnings, adding subs, etc.) but it seems like you need at least one existing subtitle track to add subs. Oh the remux happens without a problem. But a set top player will not display the subtitles or even recognize them on the resulting disc. There must be a data file with a field for the number of subpicture streams that you can edit and change from 0 to 1. Or something like that. I just can't find any info on how to do it. Does anyone know how you go about adding subs when there is no existing set to be replaced?
