Here is my build: PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$HOME/Projects/ffmpeg/ffmpeg_build/lib/pkgconfig" export PKG_CONFIG_PATH ./configure --prefix="$HOME/Projects/ffmpeg/ffmpeg_build" --extra-cflags="-I$HOME/Projects/ffmpeg/ffmpeg_build/include" \ --extra-ldflags="-L$HOME/Projects/f...

So, now I have tried 4.1.2 and it works with the same ffmpeg as I used before. However, I have built an ffmpeg of my own. I do not use the default one in Ubuntu and neither the one embedded in UMS. Non of them worked for all my use cases. It seems like you are not using the ffmpeg embedded with UMS....

So, I have changed to UMS 4.1.2 and tried to add the line CharMap=/ : ###n ###e ###r ###e to the renderer profile. However, the <CR> (hex 0a) is still there in the SOAP response. The replacement of / to : works well as before. Either ###n is ignored or it is not interpreted as hex 0a i guess. Pen

Ok, I'll migrate over to 4.x and try it out. Comming back with the result...

Other build options might apply for other use cases. Trying to understand the options used for Windows (which always works) I had t...

I haven't tired 4.0 yet on my Ubuntu. But it seems like you have a pretty new ffmpeg. Did you use the same ffmpeg for the 3.6? Or have you changed them both at the same time.

So, meanwhile I tried a fix in the svt.ch file that skips initial and ending carriage returns in a title. And vola - it works.

Edit: Updated the svt.ch file to fix more than two <CR> in a title.

Great and lots of thanks!!!

I'll report back.

Seems to be the same problem with TV5. I think I have always had that problem TV5 but I haven't cared about it since I'm looking much more on SVT. But now we might finally have found the reason also why TV5 never worked. I'm not very good at building myself (although I finally succeded with the ffmp...
