Whenever I try to encode a blu-ray (dumped via MakeMKV) that has PGS subtitles I get segmentation fault. The following is all I get from gdb. #0 0x00007ffff6a98ef3 in avcodec_decode_subtitle2 () from /usr/lib64/libavcodec.so.54 #1 0x0000000000466bf3 in ?? () #2 0x0000000000486b32 in ??

I understand this is not an option for Gentoo. Are there any other possible solutions?

I'll look into making bundled available through an USE flag. The last comment seems to say something about version; so, I'm wondering whether this might be fixed in newer versions (or if not, if a patch was sent upstream for this)...
Can you confirm if this affects libav also? Upstream bundle libav rather than ffmpeg so that could be a starting point.
I switched to libav-9.7 and no segfault. With ffmpeg, handbrake would always segfault before the encode got to 1% complete.
Can you confirm whether it works with the tightened up ffmpeg dep? Thanks for your help with this!
It doesn't work. I assume HandBrake wants ffmpeg-1.2.1. That's the version I had when I first encountered this issue and the version that's installed now.
Any update on this? Upstream only supports very specific libav versions, so give a libav:9 ebuild a try if you are still struggling.
I made the switch to libav 6 months ago because of this bug and have not had any problems since.
