Internal SRT Subtitles
Question: When people refer to 'internal SRT' subtitles, what formats are they referring to?
From the muxing processes which I have tried (primarily HandBrake), SRT subtitles are transcoded to MPEG-4 Timed Text for .mkv / m4v (mp4). And my searching of Doom9, HandBrake, and Google has not revealed any relevant information. Notes: - MPEG-4 Timed Text standard link - SRT subtitles are purely text. |

For mkv:
http://matroska.org/technical/specs/subtitles/srt.html When speaking of embed srt subtitles in mkv, it's usually called that way, because mkvtoolnix uses srt for input and output format for these simple text subtitles. |

Timed Text spec MPEG4 Timed Text spec Is there another format for 'internal SRT' or are these two formats what SRTs are transcoded into? |

Internal simply refers to the fact, that the sub file is inside the container. So you can take pretty much any type of 'regular' subtitle you like, SRT, SSA, PGS, Vobsub and mux it into an MKV or MP4. Inside MKVs the subs keep their format, don't know about MP4 though.

And mp4, afaik only supports vobsub and timed text. And adding to that, ttxt is not very well supported bu current subtitle renderers. |

With Google you'll find some threads on Apple forums dealing with SRTs and MP4s. Maybe this will help to determine whether it's actually possible. Wikipedia doesn't help.
