aenon83 8 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I like to watch movies and tv shows with its original audio with subtitles. When I pause and resume a video in Emby Theater, the osd (with pause, rewind, stop buttons....) takes too long to disappear and I can't see the subtitles that are on screen. There is a way to remove the delay for the osd to disappear or at least make it like netflix? For example. when the osd appears, the subtitles move up above the osd bar. This also happens in the web app and with chromecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37254 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 i think moving up the subtitles is a good idea. on mobile devices you can also tap the screen to make it disappear. on other form factors you currently just have to wait for it hide.

aenon83 8 Posted November 17, 2017 Author Share Posted November 17, 2017 Another solution could be to place the osd in the upside of the screen, though aesthetically it may not be the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37254 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Yea i don't think that would work. i think we just need to push them up, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanielXB 0 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Any news on this ? in chromecast i need to rewind after unpause (also the white subtitles are difficult to read in ocasions) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37254 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 We'll look at this in a future update. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdrianW 1053 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I've been asking for a solution to this for a while (see: Option for seek bar to disappear more quickly). I think this would be a suitable solution: If the OSD is not on screen then pressing up arrow displays the OSD If the OSD is on screen then pressing down arrow immediately hides the OSD And, maybe even some new functionality: If the OSD is not on screen then pressing down arrow displays a new OSD (dropped down from the top - like Apple TV) showing the episode/movie synopsis In this case, if the upper OSD is on screen the pressing up arrow would hide it.

DanielXB 0 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 In chromecast don't hace down or up arrows, maybe like the firetv where on unpause the osd flashes and quickly disappear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cochize1 42 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Hi, I have been looking for the same solution (all I can do is only use custom css toNOT display the on-screen display covering subtitles at all). I want to ask, is there any solution to that problem: - custom css - modifying server files (that would be wiped after update) - any other solution in future updates? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37254 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 There currently isn't' any way to customize this, but what are you trying to do? Increase or decrease? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There currently isn't' any way to customize this, but what are you trying to do? Increase or decrease? For me the best option would be that the OSD only appears for 1 sec (or preferably a number you could customize) and only be shown on mouse hoover. And yes, mMain reason for that is that OSD is covering the subtitles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, a fixed position. i.e. they will remain in that position and will not move based on the OSD. The OSD is independent of the subs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that you can achive the subs fixed position also with css, i.e.: ::cue { font-size: 170%; font-weight: regular !important; } video::-webkit-media-text-track-container {bottom:18px;} video::-moz-media-text-track-container {bottom:18px;} For non-english users that in most cases use subtitles the UX experiance is that when they pause in the middle of fast-paced subtitled conversation in movie/tv series they have to rewind to the point where OSD doesn't overlay the subtitles.(at lest 5 seconds). Is there any way of taking control of the OSD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest asrequested Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 That probably won't work. One line in an mpv.conf and you can put them any height you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cochize1 42 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 (edited) That probably won't work. One line in an mpv.conf and you can put them any height you want. The reapperaing scenario in my case is this: I like large white regular subtitles for English and Korean movies displayed at the very bottom of the screen of my TV (90% of the time usiing web client in my Chrome browser with some custom css, i rarely use Emby Theatre and Emby Android). Whenever I pause and play OSD covers the subtitles for 5 seconds which results in me having to press the rewind button set to a 15 sec 'jump' every time that happens. I think that the best solution would be to place the subtitles above the OSD panel by default. That would improve the experiance of the non-english users and had non or minimal effect on the rest. Right now I am looking for any piece of code that could fix it for me using the web client before, hopefully, it will be implemented along any Emby app in the future releases.
