DVB Subtitles streams are also lost (no more in output transport stream) when running a VRD Quickstream Fix on the original captured transport stream. (actually, these DVB subtitle streams are not any more present in the output transport stream).


Is there a way (parameter ?) to tell VRD to be forgiving of such subtitle PTS delays, and correct them in order to keep DVBS subtitle streams in a cut output transport stream ? I also want to keep this DVB subtitle streams in my cuts (done with VRD V5), but apparently the DVB subtitle substream PTS delay is "out-of-range" for VRD, so the DVB subtitle streams (although they show up in Tools > Show Video Program Info) are lost in the cutted output transport stream. But I absolutely like this FTA channel because movies are broadcasted in the original language version (with french DVB subtitles). HD transport stream, captured from a specific FTA SAT channel (ARTE, Hotbird 13☎ Transponder 11681H) include DVB subtitle streams with their PTS time stamps terribly delayed to video stream (a delay of 1 HOUR 30 MINUTES seems to be "normal" practice: see Additional Information below). Though I am not certain, It seems this behavior started with the last app update (1.78).VRD V5 : How not to loose extremely-delayed DVB subtitle streams in HD 264 Transport Stream cuts ? I made some additional tests playing/transcoding the same movies to both the web and android clients but was unable to reproduce the behavior. I got the impression server gets delayed by initiating the transcode process but the subtitles are served to the device just as the movie were not transcoded. The same movies that shows correct subtitle sync on the first Roku, show them two seconds early on this device. Problem is that subtitles "arrive too early" on this second Roku.

As they are both configured to the maximum 20MHz bitstream I regard this transcoding relates to the sound stream. It transcodes the same MKVs that the other plays directly. The second one is directly connected to a TV set. It, thus exhibits a "direct play" on almost all MKVs. One is connected to a 7.1 amp and it accordingly passes DTS/AC3 streams to the amp. I have two Rokus 3 both running version 1.78.
