We have to figure out what is different... @cayars can you test this out? Yes that would be awesome. Do you use it with .strm files? I also wouldn't mind letting you poke around on the server to check a couple of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a couple thousand STRM movies so I'll d/l subs for a few and see what I get trying the subs on a few client platforms. SirTranceALoT, thanks for the offer, might take you up on that depending on how my testing goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlo 4330 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 If we're talking about basic functionality of strm and subtitle playing this does work for me. I just used Emby to download an srt for a movie I have that's using a STRM file and it worked. Timing was off but I didn't do a hash match and just grabbed the first sub available to test with but it worked in web and Android TV, Android Mobile and web. I can test other clients if needed or other sub types if needed, just let me know. Carlo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirTranceALoT 1 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Thnx m8. I just tried on my GF's Android TV box and it works there too. This is very odd. Can you tell me what player it is using while playing back. You can see that in the stats for nerds. In short, this is probbably a problem with my ATV box in combination with the client.

Luke 37065 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 It could be a variation depending on how it is streaming from emby server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She tried it tonight. So serverwise all should be fine so it must be my client. I'll delete the cache and reinstall it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirTranceALoT 1 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 (edited) OK, so I turned on external player and then it works with transcoding turned on. When I tried on the emby client, the server isn't transcoding. I also checked with my GF's profile on my TV box and they don't show. On her profile, transcoding is turned off. Now I haven't checked what happens when she plays back media. Will come back to you on that. Edit: Installed EmbyCon for Kodi and they show with direct play. No transcoding. Direct play on the emby client does not work. Edited August 1, 2020 by SirTranceALoT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37065 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Please attach the server log. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirTranceALoT 1 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 (edited) OK will do so later on today. To recap cause I see I'm making a little mess of things: - With External player and transcoding turned on: Subtitles show and server is transcoding. - With external player turned off and transcoding turned on: Emby client does not show subtitles and server is not transcoding - With EmbyCon for Kodi and transcoding turned on: Subtitles play fine and server is transcoding - With EmbyCon for Kodi and transcoding turned off: Subtitles show and server is direct playing - With another profile with transcoding turned off on another TV box: Subtitles show fine and Direct streaming - With another profile with transcoding turned off on my TV box: subtitles don't show and server is direct playing Edited August 1, 2020 by SirTranceALoT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deathmo 4 Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 (edited) Maybe this was answered before but, I have the problem that whenever there are more than one subtitle at the same time I only see one. For example when 2 people are speaking at the same time or one is speaking and there are voices in the background. Normally you would have the background on the top have of the screen and the other speaking person at the bottom. Or when someone is speaking and there are street signs in the picture which have a subtitle. I can only see one but never both subtitles. Like this I only choose this picture to make it more understandable what I mean. In Emby App on Nividia Shield I can only see the bottom subtitle and for example in Kodi I can see them both at the same time.

If so, turn on the option in the app playback setting to burn those in for proper formatting. With the next version of the app, that should not be necessary but it is right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
