The subtitles were defaulted on, without the option of turning them off, so they should be there no matter what, but I've noticed that one of my newer dvd ripping programs does not recognize the subtitle track as being there to rip it, where as an older one does.
I'm guessing this is a compatability issue with dvd studio pro 1.
Anyway, I'm ripping everything and re assembling it with the current version.
That should fix the old compatibility issues. Still really strange...
Every device I play the old disc on displays the subtitles, it just does not display the option of a subtitle track to turn on and off...
