I´m looking for a method, where I can import forced subtitle in a subtitle stream at once in Scenarist.?

ReAuthorist make this job perfect, but how can I do this in Scenarist with the "import subtite" button?

Is there a way to set the "forcedflag" in the subtitle.sst before import?

Like:

rip subtitle with subrip. (so forced_subtitle in this *.sst, but without the forced flag)
rip forced_subtitle with subrip.
Compare forced_subtitle with subtitle and add the "flag" in the subtitle.sst.

Is this possible?

hi fourtyfour

Unfortunately there is no way of flagging this on individual subpictures in the SST file. Annoying but true.

To set the flags against the subpictures, you have to use the existing manual method of comparing the two imported subtitle streams and setting the attributes by hand in your scenarist project. Alternatively, you can export to a scenarist script and modify the "Forced Start=No" to "Forced Start=Yes" in the subpicture data section, depending on what you find easier.

Well, ReAuthorist does this autopmaticly by script import.

Could you tell me, in which part of the script I have to choose about the subtitle (subtitle + forced = subtitle with forced settings)

I need a tool like ScenChap for Subtitle.

Like:

Import Audio/video files in Scenarist.
Export a Scenarist script.
Select Subtitle/forced subtitle which should be in Subtitle 1. ( like ReAuthorist do? (does it these way? ) )
Import Script in Scenarist.

Et voila. Subtitle with forced flag in Scenarist available.

Am I right with my logical conclusion?

That could be the way till DIF4U und ReAuthorist could make "split by VobID" movies correct.(RA crashes if I want to start it)
(Star Wars EP 2 for example)

I believe trilight's uberguide guide at http://dvdguides.trilight.net shows how to do forced subs correctly.
