[Issue]: external subtitles not loaded while client decoding #10349
Comments
I saw there is an option on Android phone app, client setting>allow ssa/ass subtitles for direct play, but no such option on Android TV app |
At a minimum, we would need more detailed information about the format of the media that is failing to play. However if you are disabling transcoding, it is expected that incompatible media would fail to play. |
it's the subtitle not load, the media can play fine, do you need both media format and the subtitle format? |
Did you see the 'cc' icon when playing? I can manually load the ass subtitle on Android TV, but the app tells me that the server cannot bake the subtitle. Now I have to convert ass to srt... |
Yes,the button is there,but subtitles not really loaded |
It seems that in Android TV app, it requires transcoding for ass/ssa subtitles. AFAIK, both ExoPlayer and VLC player support ass/ssa subtitles and I don't know why Jellyfin server has to bake them and transcode... |
ExoPlayer lacks full support for ass/ssa. Most subtitles would not render correctly without transcoding... and that is why the app requires transcoding them. |
Thank you for responding. They're working on it, but it's still not completely resolved. google/ExoPlayer#8435. What about libVLC? |

Please describe your bug
My TV can decode most of the videos on my server, so I turned off the server transcoding, but while direct playing on Jellyfin TV app, the external subtitles are not loaded.
