HDHomeRun H.264 - Subtitles?

You need to check the “Extract subtitles and closed captions” option on the conversion task page to get MCEBuddy to extract them.

And yes, the unprocessed profiles will leave the broadcast closed captions in the video stream since it copies the video unaltered. All other profiles will recode the video and the closed captions will be lost (hence the option to extract them).

The “Add subtitles” option will add any available subtitles into the container (MP4 or MKV) after conversion

This is the order it finds the Comskip INI files:

  1. Specified in the Conversion Task → Expert Settings → Comskip INI
  2. Specified in the System Settings → Comskip Profile (not Comskip Path)
  3. Use the default Comskip INI provided with MCEBuddy

You may need to tweak your comskip.ini to be more aggressive in finding commercials if it’s missing a few. Check out this post:
