I tested your command line and I try to adapt that for my test files:
{{{
ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -sub_charenc cp1252 -i subtitle_test.srt -vcodec copy
-acodec copy -scodec mov_text output.mp4
}}}
In both cases I get following error messages:
{{{
C:\Video>ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -sub_charenc cp1252 -i subtitle_test.srt
-vcodec copy -acodec copy -scodec mov_text output.mp4

[subrip @ 024fc540] Character encoding subtitles conversion needs a
libavcodec built with iconv support for this codec
Input #1, srt, from 'subtitle_test.srt':
Duration: N/A, bitrate: N/A
Stream #1:0: Subtitle: subrip

Stream mapping:
Stream #0:0 -> #0:0 (copy)
Stream #0:1 -> #0:1 (copy)
Stream #1:0 -> #0:2 (subrip -> mov_text)
Error while opening decoder for input stream #1:0
}}}
The same happens if I try to import an ASS subtitle file, like:
''ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -sub_charenc cp1252 -i subtitle_test.ass -vcodec
copy -acodec copy -scodec mov_text output.mp4''
"'''Character encoding subtitles conversion needs a libavcodec built with
iconv support for this codec'''" (?) -->
Where I can found a Windows build of ffmpeg.exe built with iconv support
for srt/ass?
Would be the activation of the "iconv support" for SRT and ASS subtitle
streams/files as default already the solution of my problem? This sounds
like a pratical solution!
