Hi guys,

Loving the work you’ve done.

Is there any update on the discussion around the subtitle delay setting?

My subs are fine, they play correctly in VLC locally.

But when I cast to my tv, all subs play ahead of audio by 4 or 5 seconds.

If anyone has any input that’d be appreciated too.

But yeah keen to hear what’s happening with the prospect of subtitle delay settings.

Thanks.

I have reported that recently.  It happens when transcoding.  I found I could fix it by going to the transcoding settings in the dashboard and clearing the checkbox at the bottom for "Allow subtitle extraction on the fly" which I previously had set (I had to play something different to test it, because the incorrect data seemed to be cached for a while).

For me this only became a problem in a recent beta.  It would be useful to know what version of the server you are using, and indeed whether what I've done fixes it for you as well.

So I've added new media to the library with accompanying subs.

All play in sync.

It seems to be podnapsi subs that play out of sync.

Also I dont know why but opensubs isnt connecting.

I've created an account and associated it in the server settings.

I forget what i was watching the other night, all subs were playing 5 seconds ahead of audio.

I just played a few seconds to get you a log.

These subs are playing 5 seconds behind audio.

podnapsi doesn't have a hash matching feature like opensubtitles, so the fact that they're out of sync is not a huge surprise.

Ok no worries.

Any ideas why open subs isn't connecting?

I've found that when my VPN is enabled, this happens.

VPNs change your network stack and often have the downside of getting blocked by different sites. I know some of the meta-data providers used by Emby block several different IP pools used by VPN providers due to abuse. That's the dirty little secret of VPNs as many people use them to hide malicious activity.  That often leads to manual or automatic blocking of the IPs causing the problems.

It may not be a total block but a temporary couple hour block caused by someone using the same IP earlier or maybe a couple people from the IP block were up to no good so the whole C block range is blocked.

As Luke said we would need to look at a specific example to determine what's going on specific to your case.

From experience I can tell you if your VPN provider supports Split Tunnel you should use this to avoid problems. Setup Emby Server to be split and not use the VPN while all other traffic uses the VPN.  That allows Emby to work normally while everything else you do on the computer runs through the VPN.
