fvboegeld 1 Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 Hi, I have a problem when using emby with chromecast and subtitles.. The position of the subtitles is way to low and thet get cutoff at the bottom on my tv... Is there a setting for subtitle position on chromecast? Thanks
Meatwagon 1 Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 I am having the same problem. Tested it on 2 different screens. A 32" Philips and 40-42" Samsung. Users on my server experience the same. They all use a chromecast. Running beta 3.0.5921. Been going on for a while, thought it would be fixed with updates.
fvboegeld 1 Posted April 1, 2016 Author Posted April 1, 2016 (edited) i have a Panasonic TH-50PV 50 inch tv.. Yesterday i tried connecting my laptop directly to the tv and tested it using the emby client and all subtitles were displayed correctly.. It only occurs when using chromecast. Around only half of the subs height is visible. Running v 3.0.5934.21121 Thanks! Edited April 1, 2016 by fvboegeld
Luke 42077 Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 Ok. I've never seen this happen before but I will do some testing and look out for it. We are actually just using the chromecast's default subtitle presentation.
fvboegeld 1 Posted April 1, 2016 Author Posted April 1, 2016 Thanks.. i did some searching on google's forum and maybe found some more interesting info https://productforums.google.com/forum/?hl=it#!topic/chromecast/Qe76EGhzlII;context-place=topicsearchin/chromecast/category$3Achromecast-1st-gen
Luke 42077 Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 Ok, thanks. I've pushed an update to the chromecast receiver. Please power cycle your CC device, restart the casting app, then let me know if the subtitles are positioned better. Thanks.
fvboegeld 1 Posted April 1, 2016 Author Posted April 1, 2016 (edited) thanks.. just tried it again and the subtitles are now much better positioned and readable.. a small cutoff still happens with p,j,g,q.. but only very,very small. Edited April 1, 2016 by fvboegeld
fvboegeld 1 Posted May 26, 2016 Author Posted May 26, 2016 @@Luke.. Just to inform you that Google has released a new firmware for chromecast (1.19a.63621) that should fix this... https://productforums.google.com/forum/?hl=nl#!topic/chromecast/VOese7NOu8U
Luke 42077 Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Awesome, thanks. I don't think we need to change anything.
