Friends
I have a mpg that I wish to extract the captions as a file.srt.
I have tried a few things I found on the web.
There does not seem to be a decreet stream for the captions , like a mkv might
have.
But I do see captions when I play the file in mpv
Below I have made 4 attempts
ffprobe mtp_1.mpg shows
