Best Blu-ray subtitle settings in tsMuxeR?
For years, I've been using tsMuxeR to make simple Blu-rays without menus. I've been using the following settings for the subtitles:
Font: Arial Font size: 65 Additional border: 5 pixels Bottom offset: 155 (for letterboxed 2:35:1) or 110 (for 1:85 aspect ratio). However, I've been wondering whether these settings are ideal. For example, is 110 pixels too high of a bottom offset for the 1:85 aspect ratio, is 65 an ideal font size (perhaps too big?), and is 5 pixels an ideal font border size? I'm very satisfied with a 155 pixel bottom offset for 2:35:1 movies, but I'm iffy about the rest of the settings. And I'm fairly satisfied with the Arial font, although it's possible that there are better ones. What settings would you recommend? |

In my case I want the .srt subtitles I add to tsMuxeR to have the same settings as the ones included in the m2ts file of the movie. How can I find out the settings of the original .pgs?
When exporting the new .m2ts I want all the .pgs subtitles I get to be identical. I mean, same color, font, size, line spacing, additional border pixels, bottom off screen... |

Either you find matching fonts by comparison and remuxing tests.
Just trial and error, trial and error. Or if you must have everything absolutely identical: OCR all (SubtitleEdit with Tesseract) and render all new.
