SamES 890 Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 Thanks. You shouldn’t need to extract the subs, just play them directly as a subrip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've played around with formatting .ass subs some and they work well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Painkiller8818 203 Posted September 22, 2022 Author Share Posted September 22, 2022 I did another test with the 1.3.9 version and assassins creed. The 4k, still hast the flickering problem and the normal 1080p is playing the subs fine (even if the 1080p just has DTS audio) for the 4k i selected eng ac3 with german forced subs.

Done. it is a bit longer (53 secs) but watch till the end when i jump back for 30 secs and it works fine. So i think it is the server, not the client, but just guessing Assassins_Creed_4k_subs.mp4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So i think it is the server, not the client, but just guessing Thanks, that's perfect. Jumping back is great and shows the inconsistency. Let me see what I can come up with. For DirectPlay, it's all in the client. For internal subs we normally take the timing events directly from the player to show and hide the sub. As you can see from your video, it's inconsistent. After you skip back it works the correct way, but not initially. I have some thoughts on how we can work around this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37067 Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Hi, please try the 1.4.0 update that just went up and let us know how that compares. Thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Painkiller8818 203 Posted October 1, 2022 Author Share Posted October 1, 2022 So, i did the test, and the 4K with ENG AC3 Audio with german forced subs looks fine, i tested it 3 times and it worked 3 times. I switched to GER DTS with german forced subs, and it does not show german subs, it stays on english as it is the fists sub in the file. I also tested the non 4K 1080p version with German DTS and german forced subs, this worked fine. So for now it seems the sub flickering has gone but taking the correct sub is not fixed. (Even if the info shows it should be german subs it displays the eng subs) Both 4K tests attached.

SamES 890 Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Thanks, can you attach the ffmpeg and server log for the German DTS playback? Great to know that the flickering subs are fixed. Is it correct to say that with DirectPlay this is working fine, but with HLS/DirectStreaming playback the subs are wrong? I have another user that seems to have the same problem, but I can't reproduce it yet @Marcus1305, can you please double check you are definitely using 1.4.1?

I'm fairly sure you shouldn't be seeing flickering subs now I am using 1.4.1. Subs no longer have problems with flickering and aren't displayed until next one appears. The problem I was referring to is the one in which the initially selected subtitles do not appear at all until you change to internal subtitle of another language, then all the subtitles start to work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please confirm: Does this fix the issue - initially showing the wrong track until you switch languages? If it doesn't completely fix it, is it any better? Has this caused any other issues?

Painkiller8818 203 Posted October 19, 2022 Author Share Posted October 19, 2022 (edited) @SamES Tested with app version 1.4.5 Movie: Assassins Creed 4K Sorry for not having any good news but it is not working with the 4K version. 1. 4K Test: I started the movie with the correct sub lang and German DTS Audio, no subs, so i switched to Eng Subs and back to german, but all i got is eng subs. So switching does not fix it for me. It really seems this is just a problem with 4k Movies (or lets say i only got it on them for now) 2. 4K Eng Audio Test: I tried the 4K movie with eng AC3 audio and german forced subs but still eng subs appeared. Jumping forward or back also does no longer fix this for me like 1.4.1 did so it seems to be worser than before. 3. 1080p Test: With the normal 1080p version is working better, i started the normal 1080p version with german DTS audio and german forced subs and it is working. i switched to eng forced and back to check if it still works and recorgnized it is not switching to eng subs, it stays on german subs even if the english are activated. Switching back to german again shows me in the nerds view for the subtitle Debug on point 3: InvalidValuesError I got this error also in the beginning where no subtitles was but it changed when the first subs should be shown and worked normally, but after switching to eng and back they are talking spanish in the movie and i don't see subs at all till i jump forward or back, after that i got the expected german forced subs back. The video i made is >200MB so i sent you a message with a nextcloud link. Edited October 19, 2022 by Painkiller8818 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The video helps a lot, I think I know what's going on and it confirms my suspicion It looks like it's having trouble retrieving the track details from the player. The single digit instead of a full detail line in item 2. of the debug confirms that. Now I think now I know what we're going to need to do to resolve this.
