 True, but it's not an ffmpeg issue but a HandBrake problem, as the
 developers do not seem to be interested in adding support for it. I just
 posted here seeking some advice, which very kindly I got. Thank you :)

 I've seen that we would need to patch support for the AV_CODEC_ID_SUBRIP
 format which is completely missing in HandBrake; just adding it along
 AV_CODEC_ID_{TEXT,SRT} is not enough. HandBrake it's then able to
 recognize the UTF8 subtitle stream but dies with:

 {{{
 [matroska @ 0x7fd1f08ca660] Subtitle codec 94212 is not supported.
 }}}
