Yesterday I tried to make my first DCP with subtitles that were not burnt
into the source file. It didn´t work out that well, the swedish translation
was lost in the process. Yes, the checkbox "with subtitles" was filled. Am
I doing something wrong or is DVD-o-matic unable to extract subtitles from
this source file?
The source file (.mkv) origins from the sub-DCI distribution system used
for documentarys and art house movies in Sweden until now.
Source file tested on a Tvix Slim S1 running 2.1.0, subtitles visible on
screen.
DCP file tested on Dolby DSS220/IMB Cat745/Barco DP2K-10s, no subtitles on
screen. DSS220 running 4.5.4 (2).
DVD-o-matic ver. 0.80 (as I remember)

Subtitling on the projector is still not reliable, esepcially given your fairly new
equipment.
If possible, try your DCP first on a few other machines. You could create a short piece
with subtitles and make it available to users of other equipment for a quick cross check.

As I understand, DVD-o-matic will create a DCP with subtitles "burnt into"
the picture. (see 3.3.4 in the manual)
And yes, subtitling in the projector is a pain!

Did you see subtitles on the preview in the DVD-o-matic window? I suspect
DVD-o-matic does not support that subtitle format (yet). I only tested it
with DVD subtitles ... Do you happen to know of any online examples of
videos with ASS-format subtitles?

I´m not sure, I really don´t remember. There were a lot of things going on
at the theatre that night. Shame on me.

I will look into that today. I can probably find some trailers with
ASS-subs.
Speaking of ASS, our older mkv-files uses another type of subtitles.
Mediainfo from Aki Kaurismäkis excellent "Le Havre" is attached.
