I do not call them bugs because I am not sure if they are related to my hardware/software configuration (Intel Pentium E2140 and Windows XP SP2) or not. Anyway, I can reproduce them.

I am using FUW 2.8. Container: Matroska. All encodings 2-pass, audio left in AC3 format. The size of the file  - 1.37 gigabytes. Test DVDs: "The Blues Brothers", bundled with a paper, "Wild at Heart" - dual layer edition, "Notting Hill" - single layer edition. I have chosen the titles not because of the content but because they differ one from another and they are quite old (= not problem with decryption). All of them ripped with DVDFab HD Decrypter.

1. the subtitles are not extracted at all. None of them. Period.
2. the program hangs in the weird way, always with x.264 and rarely with XviD. The encodings are ok (or so it seems) but the program has problems with generating the final file. In some place (from 30-40% onwards) the program is stuck and shows that it needs more and more time to generate the file. I wanted to make a copy of "The blues Brothers" last night. FUW encoded it in around 5 hours, but after waiting over 9 hours for generating the file I gave up (no, no I am not so patient, I just checked my machine after I woke up).



Happy Easter!

Sure, below is an example. I stopped the program when the bar stopped and the program began to show that it needs more and more time for creating the file. It was one of two "XviD cases", described above. What is strange the stuck files are playable, audio and video are synced as they should be. They just end before they should.
