Wild media server wmsmpeg.exe for subtitle

Dear zip,

You have a great product only feature I am missing is embeded subs.
I see Wild media server uses ffmpeg for transcoding through some sort of wrapper (wmsmpeg.exe), is it possible to implement this or something like it to enable embedding of subtitles in movies?

Thank you.

I asume it's mencoder. That is not bundled with Serviio and most likely won't be. I think the functionality might be coming to ffmpeg anyway.

No it realy is ffmpeg.
This is the commandline:

"C:\Program Files\Wild Media Server\wmsmpeg.exe" -i "movie.mkv" -f asf -vcodec wmv2 -b 4000000 -aspect 16:9 -copyts -pix_fmt yuv420p -acodec wmav2 -ab 160000 -ar 48000 -ac 2 -s 1280x720 -vhook "wmssubt.dll movie.srt,Arial,29,1,16777215,0,4,0,0,0,1280,716,23.976,0,0,0,nld,0,0" -map 0:0 -map 0:1 "movie.wmv" -v -1 -loglevel quiet

And this is the output, looks like ffmpeg.

ok, this is probably the piece that does all the work: wmssubt.dll
Not sure if it's something custom made or just a renamed ffmpeg library
