I have an mkv file with

1 video track
1 audio track
1 English forced subtitles

Sub is binary idx/sub

Trying to create a temporary lossless copy before I convert to final format with subtitles burnt in. what is a good way to burn in the subtitles?

I tried a number of approaches including:

Ffmpeg -i video.mkv -filter_complex "[0:v][0:s:0]overlay[v]" -map 0:a -c:v libx264 -preset ultra fast -qp 0 output.mkv

Looks like subtitles were applied but was outside the screen. Video is 1920x800 with no bars and you could see a small piece of the watermark at the bottom of the screen and cut off on the very bottom

Additional note. Looks like the subs are 1920x1080.

Thoughts?

Thanks.

Extract them with MKVCleaver and resize with BDSup2SUB.
