In-place mode does not write the entire file

[glebm]

For large-enough files (100KiB+), the in-place output always gets cut off.

I'm guessing the buffer does not get flushed / the file handle does not get closed?

That's very weird. Can you provide a repro snippet please?

[glebm]

Sure:

srt -i rate 23.976 25 file.srt

If you can't reproduce, you might need to convert the file to utf8 first.
