Hi,

Dont know if its related to a setting, but the size of the subs when playing a movie are way smaller then when watching a tv show. I'm casting from a pi3 to chromecast.

 

Thanks

@@fvboegeld, probably because they have different kind of subtitles. can you copy and paste the media info from the detail screen of the web for the two videos? thanks !

The subtitles with the movie are also more at the bottom of the screen and almost 40% smaller than the one on the tv show.. Those are way to the top and much bigger...

 

Could this be related to the resolution? 

 

Hope this helps!

 

Thanks!

Ok, the size looks the same to me though, it's just a little different position. Thanks for the screenshots.
