Change Font Size?

[Dazik 45]

Hey guys,

 

As the title suggests, is it possible to change the font size in Theater? It's more or less a personal tastes type thing, I find the subtitles to be rather large which makes them appear blurry.

Not at the moment it's a possibility for the future. subtitles are separate and are likely to get settings first.

I have now discovered “Emby Theater” for myself, and I am very happy about it. And it works much better than in a web browser, because streams that don't work in the browser do there normally. What I also find ingenious is that nothing has to be converted. Everything is played-back directly!

But at a resolution of 5120x1440, the font could be a bit larger. Since the thread is already a few years old, does such a feature already exist? I would really appreciate it...

I created a test file for the font size and also linked it to the home directory (.config/Emby\ Theater/emby-fontconfig/config.d/99-emby-fontsize.conf)
. However, it does not yet work. Am I on the right track?

cat  /opt/emby-theater/share/fontconfig/conf.avail/99-emby-fontsize.conf

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
  <match target="pattern">
    <edit name="pixelsize" mode="assign">
      <double>22</double> <!-- Testsize -->
    </edit>
  </match>
</fontconfig>

And start:

FC_CONFIG_DIR=.config/Emby\ Theater/emby-fontconfig/conf.d emby-theater

No error message appears, but it still doesn't work.

Hi, you're saying you created a file called 99-emby-fontsize.conf ?

What gave you the impression that this file would be used at all?

[looking111 19]

Because i've linked the file in this location ".config/Emby\ Theater/emby-fontconfig/conf.d". But you are right. With strace i see that the file is not used.

I've never heard of any of these file names so I don't know what document you read that says they would be used. Ultimately we just need to add font size options to the UI.
