All,

I'm hoping this is something that is very easy to do...although I've searched a bit and cannot seem to find anything definitive.

I'm dealing with Pan's Labyrinth (blu-ray), and I demux using TSMuxer - newest version. I've attempted to only keep the VC-1 video track and the english PGS (Presentation Graphic Stream), but when i play the resulting file in PowerDVD i get no subtitles and the option to view subtitles is greyed out in PowerDVD.

Can someone please explain how I can have the subtitles display? I've tried messing around with SupRead but cant really find a guide to explain how i can process the PGS file into something i can add back in to the .ts muxed by tsmuxer. In fact, I'm not really sure if Supread is the right program to use.

Any help would be extremely appreciated.

THanks.

:confused:

U can`t view subtitles embeeded in .ts in PowerDVD , you have to create Blu-Ray structure to see them in PowerDVD and PS3, just load that ts in tsmuxer check Blu-Ray button , press start , after it`s done you should be able to see the subtitles in PowerDVD

Psycho thanks very much! Although I think there was an additional step that you didnt mention. I muxed it but now selected create Blu-ray, it created the BDMV folder etc...however the .m2ts still didnt display subtitles. I then created an .iso of that with IMGburg and that did the trick! mounting the image (Daemon tools) and then playing with PowerDVD displayed the subtitles just fine.

Nonetheless, thanks very much for your help, you got me on the right track!
