Scenarist: Subs not multiplexed

[Yayita]

I am authoring a movie with 8 subtitle tracks.

They are all there in the track editing window.

If I use the scenarist preview window, I can switch among the subtitles, no problem.

However, when I multiplex the movie, I end up with only 1 subtitle track.

What can I be doing wrong.

in the scenario editor, highlight your 'title' folder and in the property browser check the subpicture streams are correctly selected to show 8 streams. you can alter this by switching from 'subpicture avaliabilty > custom' to ' > adjust maximum number of streams' and back again

there may be a more elegant way around this but this approach works for me

It's a scenarist 'feature'that subs with the same name won't get muxed. To overcome this you should follow Jel's directions ;)

Hey J , Flu,

Thanks for the help. Unfortunately no luck yet. I'm about to throw away this project.

I followed jel's advice changed in scenario-title properties, back and forth the 'subpicture avaliabilty > custom' to 'adjust maximum number of streams' with no luck. When in maximum I get one sub muxed. When in custom with all streams checked I get 8 subpicture streams but they are all stream 1! :rolleyes:

I changed the labguages of the streams. No luck either. They still appear as 8 sub streams with the same language, all equal to the first stream.

I exported to script and re-imported. No luck either.

Any further suggestions would still be appreciated. However I get the feeling there is a bug in the sst scripts.

Thanks guys.
