Reproduction Steps
Play the ts file and enable subtitles, which are in format EIA-608. They are not displayed.
Expected Behavior
Display subtitles.
Actual Behavior
Not displayed.
Sample Files
I carefully read all instruction and confirm that I did the following:
- I tested with the latest mpv version to validate that the issue is not already fixed.
- I provided all required information including system and mpv version.
- I produced the log file with the exact same set of files, parameters, and conditions used in "Reproduction Steps", with the addition of
--log-file=output.txt. - I produced the log file while the behaviors described in "Actual Behavior" were actively observed.
- I attached the full, untruncated log file.
- I attached the backtrace in the case of a crash.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the missing EIA-608 subtitles with the attached 600.ts sample while enabling subtitles in mpv. Trace the subtitle handling path for EIA-608 data in MPEG-TS and compare it with formats that display correctly; done means the sample's subtitles are rendered as expected.
