Some Emby Android bugs

[nishwahareesh 2]

first ones the video themes. It seems that it plays the actual video instead of playing it in the background

example:- 

next ones the subtitles. For some reason, when you initially start a video, the subtitles tend to look very oddly generated but a quick restart of the app fixes it

examples

initially starting a video (the opening/intro subtitles gets jumbled up too)

after a quick restart of the app

This ones again with the subtitles. Sometimes, the complex styled subtitles tend to glitch out and never show up (the dialogues do show up after this specific opening)

example

sample video https://mega.nz/file/wkAwBJSQ#9XZtCTDzdnsxnC0baqmBHfMnn7jVV3ya7wBvNsYyQJY (skip by 10 seconds)

I ran all the videos listed above in galaxy s10

Hi, yes we haven't yet supported video themes in this app. Currently it will try to play it in the foreground, which obviously is not good. We'll look at preventing that.

We'll look at the subtitle problem. Thanks.

quick note:- the subtitles ive mentioned above are ASS subtitles. Every other subtitles works perfectly fine.

Ok, please try again with the next update to the app. Thanks.

subtitles are suppose to appear like this. A quick restart of the app fixes this but its still annoying that i have to restart the app all the time just to make it appear properly.

I've reported some more sign subtitle bugs 

first ones the weird 1 frame delay. This stutters the text which makes it look wonky. It also tends go out of timing by 1 frame. Now this has nothing to do with off timings as I've tested this with the mpv app from the play store. So, its definitely Emby player's fault

At first, this next one, I thought it had to do with hardware limitations but after testing it with MPV, VLC and MX player its not the case

the update has come out and the subtitle bugs still exist

here's something I've noticed, the deformed subtitle text does not happen when you watch just 1 video, It plays fine, but when you start another video, it happens. So at that point, I have to restart the app to get it fixed 

WATCHING IT THE FIRST TIME

WATCHING THE SAME VIDEO AGAIN WITHOUT RESTARTING THE APP

the bugs in this reply aren't fixed too

you can use this sample video https://mega.nz/file/wkAwBJSQ#9XZtCTDzdnsxnC0baqmBHfMnn7jVV3ya7wBvNsYyQJY
