WinHelper uses ffmpeg to do the remuxing - the command that is issued is: ffmpeg -i filename.mkv -c copy -map 0 filename.mp4. This copies all streams from the original container to the new container.
To see whether a stream is supported in the MP4 container have a read of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison ... er_formats and http://www.mp4ra.org/codecs.html. MP4's have less support for subtitle and audio formats than MKV's. To be honest I'm not sure what happens if a stream that is not supported in the MP4 is copied into it - whether it is copied anyway or whether the ffmpeg remux process rejects it or fails (I haven't seen any evidence of this and I use this quite extensively - having said that my collection doesn't include many subtitles and most audio is pretty standard - AAC or AC3).
I suspect the stream is copied anyway. This doesn't mean that it will be playable on your devices - that is up to the device. Some don't support all "standard" combinations, and others support a variety of "non-standard" combinations. Only advice I can give is to try it, use MediaInfo to confirm the stream is copied, and then play it on the target device.

I think we are on topic for WinHelper, since I had the issue using it as well as command line
Added an option (Settings Tab) to test the status of the device as reported by the Serviio server when testing for TCP connections.
DenyAll wrote:Sorry - I haven't documented that very well. The option is on the Settings tab as a checkbox labelled "Sleep Management: Ignore connections to renderers marked as Inactive by Serviio". It is on by default.
So, what does that do?
