Correct. Didn't blame AnyStream. Just saying I noticed the mp4 subtitles tracks don't seem to be as widely recognized. mkvtoolnix doesn't see them and PowerDVD cannot show them. Has nothing to do with AnyStream but good to know depending on what player you use.
No worries.
We all know you did not blame anystream, you just misunderstood some things.
edit:
actually,might be good idea to include in anystream's FAQ some info about the embedded subtitles that they are NOT burnt on the video.. and they are all OFF by default,and have to be switched on manually...
personally,i now download all the videos as they are with the settings set to embed the subtitles in the video file,so i don't have to mux them manually later on..
(unless there is several audio tracks,which i, for some reason, would like to include in the final video, then i have to mux the video+audio tracks+subs into mkv ..)
ofcourse, if you want to set a certain language subtitle set ON by default,or forced ON, you need to mux the video into mkv with a seperate .srt file.
atleast i haven't found a way to edit the mp4 properties to set any of them subtitles by default, ON
edit 2: thanks for letting us know it's not working with powerDVD .. but it is an issue with the mp4 container..(or powerdvd for that matter..)
if you need the subs to display,then better download them seperately,and mux them into the video file... (i use VLC/media player classic, and they display the subtitles fine in the mp4 file,didn't try powerdvd as of yet..)
edit3:
Which version of PowerDVD you are using ?
I have v19.0.1912.62 and the embedded subtitles in the mp4 file display just fine.
