Are ttml subtitles supported? Bc they dont show up

[Pommes 12]

Hi,

so i recently got a few videos where the subtitles are in ttml format but they just arent recognized by emby (srt are fine).
They are named identically to the video files (moviename.English.ttml)
On the other side my srt ones (moviename.en.srt) are fine.

Any ideas?
:)

Hi, it's not currently supported but that should be easy enough to add. Thanks.

thx, is there any eta for their support in the near future or is it best to reencode them to srt?

I think with the way we handle subtitles it might be easy to just throw it in since we'll ultimately have ffmpeg convert it to some other format anyway. So if it's an easy throw-in, then it will be in the next release. If not then it will have to wait.

I seem to recall being told that already the detection of ttml subs may or may not succeed depending on the version of the ttml spec that was used.

Yea sorry I just tested it and the conversion process with ffmpeg is failing. That's not something we can look at right now so I would suggest converting to srt.

Obviously ultimately it would be nice to support it though.

jup thx, yeah ffmpeg can (as far as i know) to this point only encode ttml not decode 

but thx for the help and maybe at some point it is going to be supported
