#5846: Extract text subtitles in UTF-8 with BOM -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: edumj | Type: Status: new | enhancement Component: | Priority: normal undetermined | Version: Keywords: | unspecified Blocking: | Blocked By: Analyzed by developer: 0 | Reproduced by developer: 0 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Summary of the bug:
I can add '''srt''' subs (UTF-8) to a '''MP4''' file (ttxt subs) with: {{{ -c:s mov_text }}} but when I extract them from the same '''MP4''' file with: {{{ ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:s text output.srt }}} apart from they have no break lines (opened in '''Notepad''') it seems Ok in '''Notepad++''', but it says it's UTF-8 but whithout '''BOM''', and if I try to convert them to '''IDX/SUB''' with '''Txt2VobSub''', all special characters (like accents) are wrong. Here http://www.trustfm.net/software/video/Txt2Vobsub.php?page=Features it says '''Txt2Vobsub''' does not support UTF8 without '''BOM''' (it does, but wrong), so I need no add that '''BOM''' manually with '''Nopetad++''', and then accents are back! According to this http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=152419 '''-bom''' option existed before?? I haven't tried yet, but if I extract subtitles from a '''MKV''' file, it also would be whitout '''BOM'''? How to reproduce: {{{ % ffmpeg -i input ... output ffmpeg version built on ... }}} Patches should be submitted to the ffmpeg-devel mailing list and not this bug tracker. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/5846> FFmpeg <https://ffmpeg.org> FFmpeg issue tracker _______________________________________________ FFmpeg-trac mailing list FFmpeg-trac@avcodec.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-trac
