@evilsoup Neither -codec:s nor codec:s:0 "selects" anything. Both tell ffmpeg which codec to apply to an output stream, or streams, of subtitles. The -map option is used to select the stream(s) from the source. To select all the subtitle streams, without knowing how many there are, or their indices, use -map 0:s and if there may, or may not, be any subtitles, the map can be optional, and not cause ffmpeg to fail by using -map 0:s? See the Advanced Options in the ffmpeg docs.

@evilsoup -codec:s is equal to -codec:s:0 so it doesn't select all subtitles... it will extract first text track

@evilsoup -codec:s so what is the point to use it if it's not going to extract all subtitles at the time? -codec:s:idx seems only this will work? but this way we have to execute this command many times to extract all subtitles

I used: ffmpeg -i film.mp4 -vn -an -codec:s srt film.srt that should copy all the subtitles to the srt file.

Try: ffmpeg -i E:\Routine\routine.mkv -map 0:s:0 E:\Routine\sub.srt (ffmpeg should detect that you want srt subtitles from the output file name)
