7 thoughts on “mencoder disable subtitles from DVD

  1. it does work.
    for some reason, with some DVD’s, mplayer/mencoder by default display the subtitles (well, they display subtitle track 0, which maybe is typically “none” hardcopy it in there…)
    so to disable it, -sid 1000, correctly placed, works.

  2. Sorry this comes so late, but since it’s one of the top hits on google for “turn off subtitles” and “mencoder”. Append the -nosub parameter after each media target that you specify in the command line.

    Like this, { mencoder VTS_01_1.VOB -nosub VTS_01_2.VOB -nosub …

    and so on and so forth

  3. Thanks Some Guy for pointing us to -nosub. I needed that today so it may be late but your timing was perfect for me!

  4. Gracias!!
