Bofden00 0 Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 (edited) Hello, I have some issues lately with ASS subtitles. The player seems to ignore default font for lines, font change inside line is being shown correctly while trancoding to TV (not on webplayer). Also some czech letters are displayed incorectly (see attached screens). I'm using Emby server for Windows v4.6.3.0. I attach screen from MPlayer, where everything is shown correctly and screens from WebPlayer (on Firefox x64 v89.0.2) and from Sony Android TV with transcoding turned on (with transcoding off it looks same as on web-based player). I also include ASS subtitle file, so you could te st it. Note that SRT subtitles are handled correctly. I beleive subtitles works fine with trancoding sometime about 3 weeks ago and I didn't change anything on server since; I only had to buy and unlock the TV App. Please let me know, if it's some setting I didn't find or if you need any additional info.

Bofden00 0 Posted June 27, 2021 Author Share Posted June 27, 2021 Hi, sorry for the images, I should wrote a note in the pictures. First image is from WebPlayer, second is from MPlayer application and the last is from TV; on TV transcoding is ON, when it's OFF, the result is same as on Web Player. First line of subtitle is set by Style, the second line is set by ASS script: {\fnArial\fs68} Note, that both Style and Script have set the same font and size, but only Script is shown correctly on TV with trancoding.

Hi, I manage to find, where might be the problem - the font Noto Sans (NotoSansFallback.ttf) have corupted national characters and it seem to be used and embeded in Emby.Server.MediaEncoding.dll. Version 4.5.4.0 was using DroidSansFallback.ttf as fallback, which definetly works fine with national chars. Since the Noto Sans it's embeded in that DLL and server is dependent on that DLL version, I cannot test if that change make it work again. It would be at least nice to have an option in settings which font should encoder use as fallback, instead hardcoded it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiChAeLoKGB 7 Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 (edited) Hello, has there been any progress with this issue? It makes Czech and Slovak subtitles quite unbearable to use. It's the same issue as in Thank you. Edited May 22, 2022 by MiChAeLoKGB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hakamori 1 Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Hi How long will it take to fix the CZECH subtitles? I would like to buy premium, but your product in this state is unusable for Czech users. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bofden00 0 Posted July 12, 2022 Author Share Posted July 12, 2022 Hi, As I tested recently in 4.8.0.3beta with enabled encoding ASS on TV subtitles shows OK (Windows Emby server + Android TV); on web player or on TV with encoding ASS disabled are subtitles still corrupted. Maybe you can try add to Emby server new setting - path to used fonts (or add fixed path to fonts). To this path users could add fonts used in ASS subtitles and default fallback font, as I already sugested sometime year ago - since the corruption cames from that default fallback font NotoSansFallback.ttf anyway.
