Problem subtitles arabic ( RTL ) Look at the pictures

[aldhfere990 3]

hello
Welcome

First of all, I must clarify

I tried the emby app and the infuse app

There is no application in tvos that supports reading subtitles programmatically (RTL). Why don’t we put an option in the settings to activate RTL, just like the MX Player application did on Android TV?

 

Emby is the first application to support this, and it is very easy programmatically

Everyone knows that the Arabic language is spoken by more than 22 countries in the world, and everyone knows that it is spoken from right to left, not from left to right.

There are some subtitles of the infuse app where the point is . And - inconsistent

For example, the point is on the right, and it should be the last on the left

Likewise - it should be the first line on the right, but in Infuse it should be the last on the left

But the question mark? Works fine and finally comes to the left

(This problem occurs with some, but not all, subtitle.)

Two experiments were done on the mx player application, and it fully supports RTL

And do an experiment on infuse

Look the difference

Note: This problem does not occur with all movie subtitles…it only occurs with some

These codes are just an idea and nothing more

Example

swift
func reverseSrtLines(srtText: String) -> String {
    let entries = srtText.split(separator: "\n\n")
    let reversedEntries = entries.map { entry in
        let lines = entry.split(separator: "\n")
        let reversedLines = lines.map { line in
            let characters = Array(line)
            let reversedCharacters = Array(characters.reversed())
            return String(reversedCharacters)
        }
        return reversedLines.joined(separator: "\n")
    }
    return reversedEntries.joined(separator: "\n\n")
}

Hi, how does it look when playing in the Emby Apple TV app?

Like the pictures in the beginning of the topic
It is similar to infuse in terms of the problem

See mx player android tv provides this option

OK yes it's something we can look into. Thanks.
