DVB-T subtitles not displayed in H264/AAC stream

Description

Danish TV recently switched to use DVB-T subtitles on all new MPEG4 channels. Myth doesn't seem to recognize these during playback (No "Select subtitle" menu in the OSD).

This is on MythFrontend version: branches/release-0-22-fixes [23710] www.mythtv.org

An example file is available here (130mb) http://jnmtest.s3.amazonaws.com/Colosseum.mpg

This plays back fine in VLC, and here's the output from ffmpeg:

Input #0, mpegts, from 'Colosseum.mpg':
  Duration: 07:22:19.75, start: 11501.228189, bitrate: 42 kb/s
  Program 1 
    Stream #0.0[0x83f]: Video: h264, yuv420p, 704x576 [PAR 16:11 DAR 16:9], 25 tbr, 90k tbn, 50 tbc
    Stream #0.1[0x857](dan): Subtitle: dvbsub
    Stream #0.2[0x858](dan): Subtitle: dvbsub

And this is the output from playback:

Two reports of this sample working fine on .23-fixes (by pressing T), suggest an upgrade if the subtitles are critical to you.

And on further review of the ticket, it sounds like you're trying to find them in the menu instead of pressing "T".
