Issue with SRT file on Handbrake












0














I keep having this odd issue with Handbrake. Every time I burn in Captions, it skips the first one. So when I export the movie, all captions appear except the first one. I have seen others reporting this issue and no resolve.



So i am taking a SRT file and merging into an MP4 through handbrake. I tried changing the start time of the first caption, but this did not work. Any help would be appreciated!

          Possible workaround, probably what you want because it's the most convenient :
          add an extra empty "caption" at the beginning so it will skip this one.



          Solution 2 : use another encoding GUI and prefer ass/ssa format instead of srt. Handbrake has always been limited in hardsubbing. Try Xvid4PSP, Shana Encoder, or Staxrip.
