lastelement21 16 Posted April 23, 2021 Posted April 23, 2021 Recently have noticed that a grey background spanning the width of the screen is under subtitles. Its extremely annoying. There doesn't seem to be a way to disable it that I can find, am I missing something? It's on pretty much all content, its not coming from the subtitle file, its being added by emby.

lastelement21 16 Posted April 23, 2021 Author Posted April 23, 2021 Weird, I fired it up again 3 hours later and it was gone. Maybe some lag on the application of the setting?
Luke 40082 Posted April 23, 2021 Posted April 23, 2021 There is no option to control the background so it probably depends on what you were playing and how it was playing. So we'd have to look at an example. Thanks.

So we'd have to look at an example. Thanks. I've got it doing it again, so lemme take a look. Its showing up under direct play mode in Chrome on MacOS, but is not showing up in Firefox on the same machine, from the same video content/SRT file, also direct playing. I think Chrome on windows may not show it either, but I'm out of town atm so I can't check quickly.
Luke 40082 Posted April 28, 2021 Posted April 28, 2021 Right, it's possible that Chrome on MacOS just doesn't support or allow the technique that we're using to hide the background. We'll have to look into that. By the way have you tried it on MacOS 11.3? Thanks.
gacopl 0 Posted October 18, 2021 Posted October 18, 2021 yeah i confirm having the same on latest chrome on mac 11.5.2
Luke 40082 Posted October 18, 2021 Posted October 18, 2021 Yea there's no way to style the native subtitles on MacOS as the browser just doesn't allow it. In the next release we've switched this over to our own rendering and that resolves this.
alexrw 13 Posted December 6, 2021 Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) Good news on the new release. Can we please get an option for this rather than have it hard coded? Also, is this possible to be overridden by custom CSS, and if yes, what's the CSS selector for it? Lastly, is there a beta for the new release? This dark background is making movies unwatchable for me Edited December 6, 2021 by alexr

icode 0 Posted August 5, 2022 Posted August 5, 2022 its August 2022 and I have the same issue too I never faced this issue before on Chrome MacOs. Not a subtitle file issue, from my testing.
