After about 10 years using MyMovies, I'm finally getting around to using the conversion feature. There are two things that I cannot figure out - Foreign language Blu-ray films with subtitles, and television series.
Foreign language Blu-Ray, I know the converter cannot handle directly, so I'm trying to come up with a method that will work to produce a file that MM will play using the Play Directly feature. I'm stuck. I have MKV rips with burned in subtitles which I have tried converting with handbrake using profiles that mimic the MM XML profiles. No joy. I have tried using MCEBuddy as well. No joy. Here's what I don't understand. The files the MCEBuddy outputs (either MP4 or M4V) will play just fine on every PC, iPad, and iPhone if I open the file directly using a file manager. If I attempt to play the file using MM Play Directly, it will open the file and present a black screen with no run time. It doesn't matter how long I wait, the film never plays.
TV Series - The MM Converter converts the series just fine, but when you attempt to play anything from the series, Ply Directly only gives a "The Request Timed Out" error.
Can anyone provide some insight into what I'm doing wrong so I can get these last two things working correctly?

Thanks!
