ffmpeg - extract multi-line subtitles

Viewed 54

I'm extracting a subtitle using:

ffmpeg -i input.mkv -map 0:4 outsub.ass

It works fine at first glance:

Dialogue: 0,0:02:46.24,0:02:47.88,Default,,0,0,0,,y que eliminamos por la orina.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:48.20,0:02:50.24,Default,,0,0,0,,ツソQuテゥ le has estado preguntando

Dialogue: 0,0:02:55.80,0:02:58.56,Default,,0,0,0,,cuando comemos espテ。rrago

The problem is that the actual subtitle is this:

screenshot showing two lines of subtitle

It seems there are two lines of subtitle and only one gets extracted. There is a missing line after:

Dialogue: 0,0:02:48.20,0:02:50.24,Default,,0,0,0,,ツソQuテゥ le has estado preguntando

Can anyone help me? Besides a solution, maybe educate me in why the two lines of sub are so high above each other? Almost like a couple of new lines in between.

Kind regards and thanks in advance.
