Subtitle (VOBSUB) encoded "Only Forced" does not show in player
Problem Description
Tried to play encoded file with VLC 3.0.18 and MPC-HC 1.9.24 When recognized it does not show up, I've manually chosen that forced subtitle track in those players, scrolled to position and nothing showed. Tried more than once. With that forced subtitle, it should show a subtitle at four different positions. When changing to other subtitles while playing, they show up.
This is how I set subtitles in VidCoder for that title: https://i.imgur.com/WpR4CO9.png
P.S.: When I chose to encode "standard" AND "forced" with that forced subtitle, it plays just fine.

What exactly is going on? When you select "forced only" it is only going to show parts of that track specifically marked as "forced". If no parts of the track are marked as "forced" then nothing will show.
When "forced only" selected (ticked box) in VidCoder, the subtitle marked as "forced" does not show in mentioned players. When that same subtitle is marked as standard AND forced then encoded, subtitle will play fine, but as standard subtitle no matter what the player is set to.
Yes, translation to German caused the default row to be called Standard. I made a screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/1wULKaU.png In VidCOder i switched to English for now, if you have further questions, at least translation should not bother anymore.
Ahh okay. It looks like VidCoder is passing the encode parameters correctly to the HandBrake core. Can you test on the official HandBrake UI? If it's an issue there you can report it to them to take a look at.
