Closed Caption Selection Improvement


Recommended Posts

Posted

Closed caption is displayed by using CC. In Emby, it is shown as Cc, regardless of the subtitle file's name containing 'CC'. Could this be fixed to accurately reflect closed caption? It will look better too.

Hi, that looks like it's being pulled from the media itself which if this is the case then the media would need to be edited to reflect the name you want to see.

I gotcha. I'll give it a try and see. The KB of subtitle naming isn't detailed about this.

I went ahead and tried your suggestion, instead of making posts, and it works. What I notice is what Emby displays is inconsistent with how the file is named. I'm sure it was programmed to spell out English when it sees eng or capitalize Forced when it see forced.  Also, with CC the language isn't displayed.

Example 1: <movie title>.eng.forced.srt is displayed as English <Forced SRT). Notice 'Forced' is captialized, but not in the file name.

Example 2: <movie title>.eng.cc.srt is displayed as Cc (SRT). If cc is changed to CC, then Emby displays CC (SRT). It should default to CC as it does with language names.

Forced gets capitalized because it's a special keyword that we're looking for. We don't actually attempt to split the subtitle file name into separate words.
