For a test, I exported a bitmap-subtitle in "Subtitle Edit" and run this 
ffmpeg (git-version) command:

ffmpeg -i 
http://62.113.210.250/medienasa-live/_definst_/mp4:punktum_high/playlist.m3u8 
-i sub.idx -i sub.sub -map 0:v -map 0:a -c copy -map 1 -c:s:1 
dvd_subtitle -metadata:s:s:1 language=eng -movflags 
frag_keyframe+empty_moov -bsf:a aac_adtstoasc -f mp4 -listen 1 
http://192.168.178.22:1234

The output from http://192.168.178.22:1234 was served via 
Gerbera-mediaserver to a Panasonic-TV. The TV could not display the 
video and ffmpeg exited with "broken pipe".

I already asked this question in an other issue, but again: Could 
someone test this with a TV (maybe a different vendor) to find the 
required ffmpeg settings?

Thanks, THomas
