Sony bravia 2014 burned-in subs issue

HI,

I use the following profile for a bravia 2014,

<Profile id="sonyFIX" name="Sony Bravia TV (2013) *" extendsProfileId="sony2013">
<Transcoding>
<Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetVCodec="mpeg2video" maxVBitrate="17000" targetACodec="ac3" aBitrate="384" DAR="16:9">
<Matches container="*" vCodec="h264" />
<Matches container="matroska" />
</Video>
</Transcoding>
<OnlineTranscoding>
<Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetVCodec="mpeg2video" targetACodec="ac3" aBitrate="384" DAR="16:9">
<Matches container="*" vCodec="h264" />
<Matches container="matroska" />
</Video>
</OnlineTranscoding>
</Profile>

It transcodes mkv in order to give me full screen on tv (without black bars). But it does not give me subtitles. I burn subtitles into mkv and I have checked "enable burned in subtitles" and set to allways.

I set subtitles character encoding as ISO-8859-7 for greek characters.

Any ideas in order to have burned-in subs with the above profile?

Keep in mind that I want to keep my mkv transcoded for full screen (as I DOTN WANT BLACK BARS!!).

Many many thanks....

You have to add a <HardSubsTranscoding> section...try this

  Code:

<Profile id="sonyFIX" name="Sony Bravia TV (2013) *" extendsProfileId="sony2013">
   <Transcoding>
      <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetVCodec="mpeg2video" maxVBitrate="17000" targetACodec="ac3" aBitrate="384" DAR="16:9">
         <Matches container="*" vCodec="h264" />
         <Matches container="matroska" />
      </Video>
   </Transcoding>
   <OnlineTranscoding>
      <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetVCodec="mpeg2video" targetACodec="ac3" aBitrate="384" DAR="16:9">
         <Matches container="*" vCodec="h264" />
         <Matches container="matroska" />
      </Video>
   </OnlineTranscoding>

hi again,

the profile used but after restart gave message that server could not found and its stopping.... as a result serviio console can not be loaded.

So I returned to what I used.

thanks anyway!!
