thx. any plans of doing more episodes similarly?

Possibly. It depends on how much time I have and whether there’s interest.

oh yes there is interest. RAW FHD ts for this show is gold stuff. I hope you are able to release more.

which channel is this from?

ANIMAX: https://www.animax.co.jp/programs/NN10000170

thx again :)

Thanks for this gem, but why I can’t turn on the jap subtitle ? after doing mediainfo on the file I get a text encrypted file and can’t be turned on any media player

@DoubleHelix I’m able to turn on the Japanese subtitles with VLC. In any case, I extracted the subtitles and uploaded them here: https://mega.nz/folder/kOhyUYqZ#hWF_tdB__p94k8fdJOKb4w

@Henrietta_R_Hippo I tried VLC and it wasn’t able to play the subtitle at all or display it, it outputs an error, and when I do mediainfo it says Encryption: Encrypted
can you give me your mediainfo for the .ts to check what kind of text file type you have
Thanks for the file

@Henrietta_R_Hippo If Animax will air this anime series special 16 episode .Please upload it.

@DoubleHelix The mediainfo is the same. It also shows me that the subtitles are encrypted. I’m assuming it’s got something to do with Animax, since I have never noticed this with other channels. I’m able to select the subtitle track with VLC, but not with MPC-HC. If I upload KochiKame in future, I’ll add a link to the extracted subtitles if I find them encrypted again.

@Bruder456 They’re not currently airing that on ANIMAX. If they’re airing something, you can see this under the title: 次回放送, and then the date when then next episode airs.

@Henrietta_R_Hippo I was just telling If they will air that special episode in future.Will you upload it?
By the way show is on Abema TV. You can rip from there too…

@Henrietta_R_Hippo I couldn’t actually extract the subtitle, what did you use to extract it? since the file is encrypted

up-to-date vlc and ffmpeg can display the subs.
subtitles are ARIB format, google is your friend. there does seem to be a couple of programs which can extract but i haven’t tried them so can’t suggest any further.

Thank you for the research, sameer.

I used Caption2Ass_PCR to extract the subtitles.

@sameer it’s my fault, the vlc build I have isn’t built with arib support even tho it’s the latest version 3.0.11
@Henrietta_R_Hippo Thanks

i use 64-bit portable builds. current stable 3.0.11 works fine on my end. ARIB support was there in all 3.0.11 versions i checked right now. i don’t believe on windows the binaries being delivered would differ. maybe try resetting or jumping back and forth between versions. current 4.0.0 x64 dev build also displays subtitles properly.

@sameer, the build I have is for linux not windows, that’s why so I think I have to recompile the source code again with arib support to fix it
