How can I add subtitle so that I don't need to make conversion after it. I want to add subtitle but I don't want to change anything in video or audio quality? I have file with DTS audio 5.1 but there isn't such audio to convert.

My subtitle in Vietnamese shows some weird characters and boxes when adding to the mkv file. I try to save .srt  file in both UTF-8 and Unicode but the errors still display. So how could I make a non-Latin subtitle display properly? Thanks!
