Subtitle Options

FFEncoder can copy subtitle streams from the input file to the output file using the -Subtitles / s parameter. I have not added subtitle transcoding because, frankly, ffmpeg is not the best option for this. If you need to convert subtitles from one format to the other, I recommend using Subtitle Edit (Windows only).

The different parameter options are:

  • default / d - Copies the default (primary) subtitle stream from the input file

  • all / a - Copies all subtitle streams from the input file

  • none / n - Excludes subtitles from the output entirely

  • Language - You can also specify a language to copy, and FFEncoder will search the input for all subtitles matching that language. If the specified language isn't found, no subtitles will be copied. The following languages are supported using the corresponding ISO 639-2 code on the right:

    Language Code
    Chinese chi
    Czech cze
    Danish dan
    Dutch dut
    English eng
    Finnish fin
    French fre
    German ger
    Greek gre
    Korean kor
    Norwegian nor
    Polish pol
    Romanian rum
    Russian rus
    Spanish spa
    Swedish swe
