Some films (e.g. El Mariachi) have an English soundtrack with some spanish spoken on it. On the original there are forced subtitles.

1. Is my only option to turn off the "Prohibit User Operations" so that I get the forced subtitles?

2. Is there a way with CloneDVD/AnyDVD to tell that I will need to do this without watching the film first?

3. Could detection of the need for forced subtitles or an option only to Enable Forced Subtitles without turning on all the prohibitions be added to CloneDVD or AnyDVD?

Thanks,
Fairy

As long as you keep the menu, CloneDVD should create a copy with this kind of "forced subtitles" correctly enabled.

When copying without menu you can select them with your player remote. (Armin, please correct me, if I am wrong)

AnyDVD removes user prohibitions, e.g. the possibility to *change* a subtitle track or audio track while watching.

Some DVDs (e.g., all German DVDs from Miramax) switch on german subtitles if you select the original english audio track, and *you can't switch them off".
With AnyDVD you can.

thanks dude
