Przemek 54 Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 (edited) Hello, many movies/series have default set in Emby subtitles like that: `Polish (Default Forced SUBRIP)`. Emby don't show them so I must everytime change to `Polish (SUBRIP)`. Then it works. Regards. Edited June 13, 2023 by Przemek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that are Netflix movies/series. As You can see on screenshots there are no subtitles when FORCED SUBRIP are chosen. That is exactly the same moment in episode.

Don't understand why do You ask? That forced subtitles don't work and I don't want to see them as default in Emby. Is is possible or I have to choose working subtitles every time?

Do you know what the difference is between forced subtitles and normal subtitles? Most of the time the forced subtitles won't show anything. That's why I'm asking these questions, because you're saying "not working", and I'm guessing that the subtitles just don't have anything at that particular point in the video.

Przemek 54 Posted June 14, 2023 Author Share Posted June 14, 2023 I'm simple men and if subtitles don't show at all, it's mean for me that they don't work. It's possible to force Emby to use other subtitles that works? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 14959 Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 You may want to change your user default subtitle settings to "Always Show Subtitles" as the "Smart" or "Default" settings are going to choose those forced ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most typically, forced subtitles are for words and signs in a different language from the main dialogue; they are not subtitles of the whole dialogue. This is why most of the time you won't see anything - there's nothing to be seen! Paul 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Przemek 54 Posted June 14, 2023 Author Share Posted June 14, 2023 So they are unnecessary for watching. It will be nice if Enby ignore them and set other as default. I try `Inteligent` but after restart Emby it's still give me that forced as default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The track is marked as "Default" as well as forced so it will be preferred. For most people the forced track is the only one they want to see because it contains only dialog that does not conform to the main language of the film.

Przemek 54 Posted June 14, 2023 Author Share Posted June 14, 2023 Sorry @ebrbut I don't understand how that forced subtitles are used by someone if they are not display during play. I set to play original language of films and polish subtitles but content from netlix is always set to Polish language and that forced SUBRIP subs.

They are displayed. It is just that they only exist for dialog that is NOT the main language of the film. 1 minute ago, Przemek said: is always set to Polish language and that forced SUBRIP subs If the audio track is Polish then you would never see subtitles for Polish dialog in a "forced" subtitle track. You would see them if someone started talking in some language other than Polish in that track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Przemek 54 Posted June 14, 2023 Author Share Posted June 14, 2023 I always change to English or oryginal language but that forced don't show when play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pwhodges 1539 Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 Look at the subtitles using Subtitle Edit (it can open them directly from the video file) - then you will see how little is actually contained in a typical forced subtitles track. I've seen them with as little as the translation of a single sign. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Przemek 54 Posted June 14, 2023 Author Share Posted June 14, 2023 OK, I believe that but meybe there should be option to ignore that subs in Enby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine forced subs are by far the most common ones used. If you remove the "default" flag from those subs I believe it will solve your issue.
