dont understand why Mencoder External Subtitles dont work cause it works on PS3MS.
OK so it works via the transcode folder, that's great news. It means it is probably just a setting. Try going to the Transcoding Settings tab and choose the MEncoder section on the left. Then find the setting "Audio/subtitles language priority" and clear it so it is blank. Does that fix it?

I am not sure if I understand right but it seems clapton problem is unique.
His log says renderer is unknows so no renderer conf is used but he said it is detected correctly...
Also in log there is only one mp4 file streamed (unknown renderer supports all formats by default?) so noone can expect subs. There is no info about MEncoder in log.
So writing "no, its the same" say nothing. Noone knows if he exactly did what was requested or there are other conflicting settings.
@clapton: Please after every change requested by developers please upload also your debug.zip (in TRACE mode) so we can check all the applied settings etc...
Thx

It is ok, you did, but when you do it, we need debug.zip 8-)
It is the first time I can see MEnocder was used in your log but you didn't set TRACE debug level so needed info is missing.
Anyway I see UMS tried to play file with subs. You didn't saw any subs???

Not sure is "-nosub" will override "-sub" param but I suppose subs should be visible (if subs are not broken).

UMS generates and starts this MEncoder command:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Universal Media Server\win32\mencoder.exe" -ss 0 "D:\Downloads\Skyfall (2012)\Skyfall.2012.720p.BrRip.x264.YIFY.mp4" -msglevel statusline=2 -oac lavc -of mpeg -mpegopts format=mpeg2:muxrate=500000:vbuf_size=1194:abuf_size=64 -ovc lavc -channels 2 -lavdopts debug=0:threads=2 -lavcopts autoaspect=1:vcodec=mpeg2video:acodec=ac3:abitrate=448:threads=2:keyint=5:vqscale=2:vqmin=3:vrc_maxrate=54000:vrc_buf_size=7000 -ass -ass-color ffffff00 -ass-border-color 00000000 -ass-font-scale 1.8 -font C:\Windows\Fonts\Arial.ttf -ass-force-style FontName=C:\Windows\Fonts\Arial.ttf,Outline=1,Shadow=1,MarginV=10 -noflip-hebrew -fontconfig -subcp cp1252 -nosub -sub "D:\Downloads\Skyfall (2012)\Skyfall.2012.720p.BrRip.x264.YIFY.srt" -ofps 24000/1001 -lavdopts fast -mc 0.1 -af lavcresample=48000 -srate 48000 -o testsubs.mpg
If you don't see subs, try starting this code directly on your PC outside UMS.
- start CMD
- paste code above
- in current dir file "testsubs.mpg" is generated. You don't need to transcode whole file so you can stop it via CTRL+C (check .srt file when 1st subs starts so your test file will be longer ;) )
- check them in any media player if you see burned subs.
- if not, try to do the same but without "-nosub" part in command line
- if no subs are rendered again, try to delete also "-ass" part
- if subs are still missing, post sample of your file (if possible) with subs file [D:\Downloads\Skyfall (2012)\Skyfall.2012.720p.BrRip.x264.YIFY.srt]
- also post Mencoder output if it will generate some strage errors
Thx
