Re: [FFmpeg-user] Add subtitles and chapter metadata in one pass?
Thank you John. Your command works. And actually, I now see that my command (which was functionally identical to yours) is also working, so I apologize to the list for adding the noise. The reason that I thought the command was failing is because of the way ffmpeg logs it progress to the terminal. While it is running, one gets an updating line such as: frame=21239 fps=101 q=30.0 size= 274914kB time=00:11:49.14 bitrate=3175.8kbits/s speed=3.36x In my experience, this line was constantly updating about once per second and you can watch the "time=..." part increase as the encoding progresses. However, with the inclusion of subtitles this line behaves differently. The "frame=" part still increases about once per second, but the "time=" part only increments at the next subtitle. I had seen that freeze and assumed ffmpeg stopped working. It is very weird that this informational line behaves the way it does, but since ffmpeg is working away I'm not bothered by it.

Please post the uncut console output along with the actual command line. The same for the successful command would also be useful. Otherwise we are just guessing.

Re: [FFmpeg-user] Add subtitles and chapter metadata in one pass?
I have used a command like the below with success in the past: $ ffmpeg -i avfile.mkv -i srtfile.srt -i metadata.txt \ -map 0:0 -map 0:1 -map 1 -map_metadata 2 \ -c:v libx264 [ various options ] \ -c:a copy \ -c:s srt \ -c:d copy \ out.mkv Maybe something like that will work for you.

[FFmpeg-user] Add subtitles and chapter metadata in one pass?
Howdy, I need to start with a movie file that has audio and video, and to reencode the video and add subtitles and chapter markers. I can add the chapters in a first pass, and then add the subtitles in a second pass, and that works fine. But I can't seem to find the right command to add subtitles and chapters in one pass. For example, here is a sequence that does work: $ ffmpeg -i avfile.mkv -i metadata.txt \ -map 0:v -map 0:a -map_metadata 1 \ -c:v libx264 [ various options ] \ -c:a copy \ temp.mkv $ ffmpeg -i temp.mkv -i srtfile.srt \ -map 0:v -map 0:a -map 1:s \ -c:v copy \ -c:a copy \ -c:s srt \ out.mkv However, I would like to skip the intermediate file. Here is the command I am trying which does *not* work: $ ffmpeg -i avfile.mkv -i srtfile.srt -i metadata.txt \ -map 0:v -map 0:a -map 1:s -map_metadata 2 \ -c:v libx264 [ various options ] \ -c:a copy \ -c:s srt \ out.mkv Can anyone tell me a command that will work, and hopefully explain what I have wrong?
