ASS font style with transcoding

[iBoss 30]

Hi everyone,

 

On IOS emby app:

 

- When I play movie direct (bitrate higher than video): ASS subtitle it will show correct font that attached in mkv (please see the attached screenshot: direct_play.jpg).

 

- When I play transcoded movie (bitrate lower than video): I thing the server burn subtitle in and the font it will be different (please see the attached screenshot: transcoded.jpg).

 

I think the issue from ffmpeg it will not select the right font that attached inside mkv while transcoding.

 

Server: Ubuntu Linux 16.04.5

Emby Version 3.5.2.0

The log file and screenshots are attached

 

Thanks

Yes the font can be slightly different when the server Burns in the subtitles. Thanks.

Is there any way to let ffmpeg transcode the video with the original font ... should I install the font somewhere on the server?

 

Thanks
