With a few samples on hand, I proceeded to coding srtdrawtext without googling SubRip specifications (oops!). As stated on the manual, HTML tags in the *.srt file will be stripped.

Oh, btw, while you’re here, I wrote an ffmpeg gui with a video filter cheat sheet which has an entry with your name on it (color curves). Do you approve? If not, I will amend on next release (internet connectivity is such a precious commodity in a third-world country).

Oh I didn’t set out to address some sort of limitation with the subtitles filter, and I’m sure everyone else is doing fine with it (on Linux?). But, I’m afraid I can’t give you a good or adequate/qualified answer, except for: I can’t get it to work (I’m embarrassed actually).

I remember seeing video conversion apps with ffmpeg as main back-end, but relegating subtitle-burning-in tasks to ?mencoder? which I do not like.

Anyway, I’m on Windows XP using ffmpeg-20140226-git-96fc290-win32-static. I seem to recall seeing on the log file: ‘neither playresx nor playresy defined’, reverting to 384 x some other number, a bunch of subtitle-related stuff which seemed to indicate that it can manage and everything is okay, but no subs for me. I’ve given up on this a long time ago (sorry I couldn’t give a detailed answer). I’m not complaining, though, it just so happens that an alternative (sendcmd & drawtext) exists in ffmpeg. Just another way to skin a cat, I suppose (for those having trouble doing it the proper way).

thanks reuben! ffmpeg’s documentation is somewhat cryptic and something like this is just helpful. 😀

ffmpeg -i concat:”file1|file2|file3″ -c:v copy -c:a copy “combined.mp4”

there are other approaches, but i think this one is easy on the eyes. plus, video specs have to be exactly the same.
