问题
This is the procedure I know to convert a DVD image to another videoformat (v.g. MP4):
- concatenate the
VTS_01_n.VOBfiles insideVIDEO_TSfolder (for n >= 0) into a single VOB file. - use
avconvorffmpegin order to convert that VOB into another format.
So far so good, however now I want to convert the DVD image with the subtitles. As far as I know the MKV format supports subtitles, so it seems an obvious choice. Alternatively I might use any other format with hard subtitles (subtitles as part of the video image).
However, the subtitle encoding in the DVD image is dvdsub and I get the following error
Only SUBTITLE_ASS type supported.
Subtitle encoding failed
However, when running avconv -codecs I get:
...
DES dvdsub DVD subtitles
...
And the -c:s copy switch, while it prevents the command to fail, it does not seem to produce a subtitle that the player can understand.
So, how can I create ass subtitles from dvdsub using avconv?
My VOB file has eight subtitle channels and two audio channels. The Ubuntu video app does not show any subtitles, and only the first audio channel seems to be working, do the DVD image might be broken.
Another file, for a double-layer DVD, displays the Subtitle encoding error, however when using the -c:s copy switch it further displays:
Application provided invalid, non monotonically increasing dts to muxer in stream 2: 49 >= 49
av_interleaved_write_frame(): Invalid argument
Thank you in advance for any ideas on how to solve these problems.
(I am using Ubuntu where ffmpeg is an alias for avconv. I know it is possible to install the real ffmpeg but so far I have not done so.)

回答1:
Short answer: Skip down to section Full commandline and download ffmpeg from this site.
Originally, I planned to answer how to do this with avconv because (a) that answer is still missing and (b) avconv seems to be the default on ubuntu systems today. However it seems it's currently too buggy to accomplish this - at least for my testcases.
ffmpeg setup
Since you ask for either avconv or ffmpeg, and I just learned that avconv is a fork of ffmpeg (see this answer for a discussion), I downloaded a current version of ffmpeg from this site as the aforementioned answer explains. Windows builds are also available. For a typical current 64bit Linux build the direct link would be to this page. It contains daily builds. So scroll down until you see the latest and greatest, download, and unpack with e.g. tar xzvf ffmpeg.static.64bit.2014-02-14.tar.gz. The advantage of a static build is that it has less, if no, dependencies. Unpacking the tarfile created two new executables ffmpeg and ffprobe in the current dir.
Basic command line
Now we can use this latest ffmpeg to copy all streams inside the mymovie.vob* to a different format. For example:
./ffmpeg -i mymovie.vob -c:v copy -c:a copy -c:s copy -map 0 mymovie.mkv
This command line
- reads in from the input file
-i filename - copies video streams therein
-c:v copy - copies audio streams therein
-c:a copy - copies subtitles therein
-c:s copy - and instead of just using the first of each, it uses, and copies all of them
-map 0 - to the output file
outputfile
Let's expand the above command line to workaround some possible bugs in the tool, or corrupt input files, or just specifics about .vob files.
Work around for error Can't write packet with unknown timestamp
Add the options -fflags +genpts before the input file.
./ffmpeg -fflags +genpts -i mymovie.vob -c:v copy -c:a copy -c:s copy -map 0 mymovie.mkv
Options in ffmpeg always only affect input or output files named after the current option. Those two options must affect the input file, so they must come first.
This workaround is covered in this bug ticket and may not help in all cases.
Missing some or all subtitles
This is very typical behaviour when processing .vob files and is covered in the ffmpeg FAQ. Video container filetypes such as .avi or .mp4 or .mkv have headers (data at the start of a file) listing all content of the file. This makes it easy for players and conversion tools to know what kind of data to expect. .vob files do not have such an explicit header. So when ffmpeg or avconv start, they look at the first couple thousand bytes. In vob files, the subtitles may start very late. In my testcase the first subtitle appears after several seconds, so the tools do not see it during startup. Here's typical example output during coding in these situations:

As one can see, new subtitle streams were found during the actual encoding. If one would try to add -map 5 option to include that stream, ffmpeg would complain during startup that this stream number does not exist.
The solution is to tell ffmpeg to analyze more bytes at the start of the file in order to find all streams.
Try adding the options -analyzeduration 1000000k -probesize 1000000k before the input file.
Try increasing the numbers if the streams are still not found. In my testcases those numbers were big enough. The output then changes to:

Any of the copies can be replaced with a codec to actually convert, and likely compress, the data. But if it's just the three copies, then the command can be simplified to:
./ffmpeg -fflags +genpts -analyzeduration 1000000k -probesize 1000000k -i mymovie.vob -c copy -map 0 mymovie.mkv
All of these options are also supported by avconv. However this tool seems to still have a problem with some subtitles. If you see this error:

You can workaround by downloading the latest ffmpeg and using that tool instead, as I've explained above.
回答2:
If you need a quality saving solution you should try MakeMKV.
If you want to compress the video track or convert MPEG-2 to H.264 you can use handbrake.
