Copy of Bluray m2ts file gets broken

[tzimmo]

I try to copy one video, one audio and one subtitle track "as is" from one file to another (to strip unwanted audio and subtitles). Unfortunately the subtitle in the output file is no longer detected as a subtitle and does not work.

command: ~/git/ffmpeg/ffmpeg/ffmpeg -y -i input.m2ts -vcodec copy -acodec copy -scodec copy output.m2ts

ffmpeg version: git commit-id 22ee0a576faff87a24e30b2a27a3607dee4ca6c7

I can attach a test sample of 1 MB that is enough to reproduce the issue, but unfortunately such a short sample does not contain any visible subtitles. I can upload a longer sample to ftp server if this sample is not enough to address the issue.

In the output file, the subtitle stream is shown as just bin_data and not as hdmv_pgs_subtitle any more. With -analyzeduration 4G -probesize 4G options in both commands and a longer sample file most of the warnings are gone but the result looks still the same and the subtitle is not recognized by the player (mplayer) or ffmpeg any more.
