Subtitles not in sync with ExoPlayer on Jellyfin Android even after extracting subs - wkbt - 2023-06-28

Hey!

First I had a problem with the embedded subtitles not loading 90% of the time on Jellyfin Android (on Chromecast), and when loaded, they were out of sync. Then after extracting the subtitles with the plugin it now works fine loading them, but it's still not in sync when using ExoPlayer. They show up like 1-2s before the dialogue happens. LibVLC works and there the subtitles are in sync, but instead it stutters when I use subtitles (not when I don't). Is there a fix to any of this? 

Thanks for the help Smiling-face

Is your media transcoding when the subtitles are out of sync?

Thanks for the help, but no. Either way, it resolved itself. It seemed like there was some issue re-starting a playback after the extraction of the subtitles, which made the subtitles delayed. When I started a new playback of an episode, the subtitles showed up in sync.
