I usually backup DVDs without any subtitles. However this has got me into trouble a few times with DVDs that have forced subs (ie Ultraviolet, Kill Bill 1 & 2).

Is there a simple utility to scan source VOBs for forced subs? Only other option I can think of is to rip the english sub streams with VobSub and open them in SubResync and scan the "Forced" column. I can scan VOBs with DVDSubEdit, but there's no "info" pane or something like it. I'd have to go through each sub individually and look for the line that reads "forced" - NOT FUN.

So, any other options (preferably something quick and easy)?

Vsrip, generates idx, sub as Vobsub, but has an option to demux only forced subs.

DvdSubedit also has an option to show only forced subs.
