SSJ4Gokou 2 Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 I don't really know where to post, but using a dlna device is where I first noticed it. I went into my user preferences and changed the subtitles to smart since I watch some anime in Japanese and they hardcode the subtitles. Everything works. I was watching izombie and since changing the subtitles to smart I started seeing them when streaming to my Joey. After some research I realized as ling as there was a .srt file it will force subtitles to the video. Isn't smart supposed to only push to the video if the language doesn't match? So if it's in another language and the .srt file is is English it will then show subtitles? Not when the language is eng and the subtitle is eng it shows the subtitles anyways. Am I reading what smart subtitle mean?
Luke 42077 Posted January 16, 2016 Posted January 16, 2016 can you please provide the media info as seen in the web client ?thanks.
SSJ4Gokou 2 Posted January 27, 2016 Author Posted January 27, 2016 Sorry for the late reply. Here is a screenshot of the medi info
Luke 42077 Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 It's because the language of the audio track isn't known, therefore it's assuming the subtitles are needed 1
SSJ4Gokou 2 Posted January 27, 2016 Author Posted January 27, 2016 How do you fix that or force that to appear?
Luke 42077 Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 you'd have to remux the video and change the audio language. Sorry, at the moment it looks like those subtitles will be on by default and you'll just have to turn them off.
Happy2Play 9780 Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 How do you fix that or force that to appear? what container is the media in?
SSJ4Gokou 2 Posted January 27, 2016 Author Posted January 27, 2016 It varies, the one in question is MKV with a x264 codec. I have noticed that the videos that are in MKV with a x265 codec work just fine and the web client can pick up the correct audio lang.
Happy2Play 9780 Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 For mkv files it is easy to edit the audio language tags. mkvmerge GUI JMkvpropedit
SSJ4Gokou 2 Posted January 27, 2016 Author Posted January 27, 2016 That is awesome! I will try this out and see what happens! Thanks Happy!!
