[mythtv-users] Saving subtitle when ripping DVD

[argus]

Ah-ha!
I played the Myth-ripped video file manually with mplayer ("mplayer 
<file name> -sid 0") and the subtitles display (and turn on and off with 
"v" key).
I should have tried that out before. Thanks for the tip.

Yes, I am ripping at "perfect level". 
MythVideo does not play back subtitle by default.  I've just now added 
"-sid 0" to the end of the default video player parameters to enable 
subtitles always. This worked with  the one DVD I've ripped so far. Are 
english subtitles always "0" ?
