title: How to embed subtitles .srt file into video stream using VLC
body: <p>I have an .mp4 and an .srt and I'd like to cast them to a chromecast. apparently chromecast does not support subtitles tracks, so I need to encode the .srt file into the video.</p>
  
  <p>Using VLC, I tried to use "Convert / Save" with Overlay Subtitles checkbox - that created a movie without subtitles.</p>
  
  <p>I tried to use "Stream" to file with the exact transcoding profile - that created a file without audio or video tracks at all(!!!).</p>
  
  <p>what am I missing?</p>
