[QUOTE="elsmandino, post: 915397, member: 111675"] SUCCESS!!! Thanks to all you guys, I think I have am getting very close to my perfect solution. I originally set out to cut out the adverts from all my .ts files and covert them into .mkv files so I could play them on my tablet. I also wanted to preserve soft subtitles. Combining all you prior comments, I have found the following solution: 1. Make sure the subtitle option is set to true in the videoredo hidden options and load the .ts file. 2. Edit out all the adverts and save the file as a .ts file. 3. Use Project X to strip out the subtitle track 4. Use mkv merge to combine the .ts file with the stripped out subtitle track (and also get rid of any unwanted tracks like narration). I have considered what you lot of said with regards to re-encoding and I think I will lay off this for a while and just get some additional storage. Before I go ahead and edit all my recordings, I would be really grateful just to confirm that I am using the optimal settings in respect of the programs I am using. I have changed nothing at all in VideoReDo or mkvmerge other than checking the subtitle setting - are there any tweaks that I should be making from the default settings? In terms of project X, the only changes I have made to the default settings are as stated by Foxbenw: Before I do [U]anything[/U], I would be really grateful for any advice with regards to any additional settings that I make as there shall be no going back once I have started. In particular, are there any tweaks that I might make in terms of Project X's subtitle settings? There are loads of options and I do not understand what half of them are for? Thanks again for everyone's help. Alex [/QUOTE]
