Styled subtitles transcoding


Recommended Posts

When .ass subtitles are transcoded they become .srt subtitles which breaks styling. Example; http://i.imgur.com/86wCJVH.png

The none-English part of the subtitles is styled and as .srt does not support styling(as far as I know) this results to things as can be seen in the screenshot, or text with a lot of numbers(from the styling would be my guess)

We don't convert .ass to .srt, we burn them in with ffmpeg

Well, whatever happens.. The styling breaks.

According to Mediainfo, the .mp4(in this case) has no subtitle tracks in it and in the same folder as the media file there's only a .srt and a .vtt file

So whatever styling was in the .ass, it's gone when I play the file(in any media player)

Semi-related, when you choose "Original", Emby will create a .VTT and .SRT still (even though the media file still has the embedded .ASS of its own)
