subtitle android - ototos - 2023-10-24
Hi everyone, the famous subtitle problem on Android clients, is there any news?
That is, when you initially load a piece of content.
"Loading subtitles...."
Then the error "Unable to load subtitles"
Is there any news?
Because everything works quite well, it's this thing that's really annoying....
Thank you.

change the default selection for the user on the jellyfin web gui
click the user icon in the upper right -> subtitles -> 'Subtitle mode': None
or convert the subs in the file to a supported format

set to none, it makes no sense...
forced subtitles are important

all my subtitles are in srt format
and someone in aas
fully compatible with jellyfin.
I would prefer not to consume resources to convert subtitles...
it's a bug that has been known for a long time for the android client, it would be important to fix it once and for all, I don't think it takes much for those who know how to program.

then deal with the message if you don't want to do anything to remedy it

if this were true i would be getting this message, i do not
also if this were true there would be a github issue tracking it - head to github
i am starting to feel trolled here so how about you go to the ignore bin for some quiet time
RE: subtitle android - ototos - 2023-10-24
I'm sorry you feel trolled, but I'm serious.
For those like me who reproduce content directly without using resources, because already adapted it doesn't work....
If I had the chance to convert I would have done it...
If I had other solutions I wouldn't have opened a topic...
The problem lies with the app, I'm not the one who has to adapt, otherwise we'll all adapt and the forum is useless, the programmers can just go for a ride and avoid wasting any more time with us.
We are here precisely to avoid all this... "fit in".
A few topics that have the same problem as me...

and it's a search done in 2 minutes... without digging deep...

In my experience the subtitle issue is that the extraction process takes longer than expected. Try installing the subtitle extractor plugin and let it run through your library

It's an extra click or two when playing something back, but you can set the JF client to use an external client to play the movie/show. That's what I ended up doing to get around similar subtitle issues. VLC is the external client I use to offload playback of problematic subbed media.

Hi. You do this on Jellyfin client, running on Android TV OS ? How ?
