SRT subtitle color support?

Hi there,

 

I am posting this in the Samsung and the Android TV forums. For those of you that have problems with too bright HDR subs, have you tried the following edit to your SRT files?

 

<font color=#808080>Line</font>

 

This worked on the LG Smart TV app up until the latest release of the app where the support disappeared.  :mellow:  It appears that neither the support for it or the removal of the support was intentional by the developers but I hope they are able to restore this in the future. Meanwhile, I am curious to hear if it still works on the Android release? Or if it has never worked?

 

It can sound a bit nerdy to have to edit your SRT files to get a good viewing experience but it has the upside that you can do it for HDR subs alone and leave SDR subs untouched. A setting in the app would most likely affect all subtitles. And it takes like 10s with a proper subtitle editor (select all lines, change color).

 

Best regards

Martin

Grey is better if you have visual issues. #ccc

The <font> code needs be on all lines or use "subtitle edit" to change the colors and save to .srt or export to .sup (PGS)
