@resolution: I’m not surprised hardware media players have strange/arbitrary limits on MKV containers. If it helps, I know Blu-ray discs can have up to 32 audio streams, and it’s possible an M2TS container may work better even without being burned to disc. Careful with your counting, though – some authoring tools (tsMuxer) allow you to add more than 32 without any warnings, and disc behavior with too many streams is bad.

Thanks, I hadn’t thought to try M2TS on the Oppo. Will have to experiment with that sometime.

Thank you CatBus. Your explanation makes sense. I did try muxing in the 1080p SUP files, and the results are good upscaling to 2160p/24. 1080p subtitles also work properly for the 2160p native 4K77.

Off topic, but I also discovered that the UDP-203 apparently doesn’t like more than 10 audio tracks in an MKV file. If your MKV has 11 or more, I will only “see” the first 9 and then the nth one.

I have a tech question. I muxed a few of the 720p SUP files (e.g. English, English SDH) into the 720p despecialized editions. When I play the resulting MKVs on my PC, the subtitles look like they are the correct size in relation to the image.

However, when I play the same MKVs on my Oppo UDP-203, the subtitles appear quite a bit smaller. I tried changing the Oppo from its usual 2160p output to 720p and 1080p, and the results were the same.

Has anyone else encountered this? Is this a quirk of the Oppo? If I want proper size subtitles on the Oppo, maybe I need to mux in the 1080p SUP files instead?
