Subtitle issues over WAN

[Luke 42078]

@ can you tell him the process for obtaining an mpv log? We don't have this documented yet but I think mpv logging will probably show some kind of failure to download the subtitles. Thanks.

Ok, so to get some logs, make an mpv.conf file in this location

 

C:\Users\YOU\AppData\Roaming\mpv

 

Then add this line to it

 

log-file="D:\ET mpv logs\log.txt"

 

And change the highlighted text to the location of your choosing.

 

Hopefully we'll see what's going on with what your issue is.

I can't find any reference to subtitles in that log, which would show they are not present. But I have no idea, why...

But when im playing the video i can select the subtitles and it was set to on in that log

Here's an example of what you might see

[mkv] |  + Track type: Subtitle
[   0.025][v][mkv] |  + Codec ID: S_HDMV/PGS
[   0.025][v][mkv] |  + Default flag: 1
[   0.025][v][mkv] |  + Forced flag: 0
[   0.025][v][mkv] | + a track...
[   0.025][v][mkv] |  + Track number: 6
[   0.025][v][mkv] |  + Track type: Subtitle
[   0.025][v][mkv] |  + Codec ID: S_HDMV/PGS

But it isn't present in that log. Something is occurring that inhibits mpv from seeing/processing/using the sub track. One possibility is that it's property is being changed in a way that mpv doesn't recognize it. I'm just throwing that out there. It's odd that this only happens with playback from outside your network.
