Subtitle Format - heinz - 2023-12-13

Is there any way to change the subtile format? like a plug in or something. I have a hard time seeing subs in white background. The shadow/borderĀ  just isn't thick enough for me or the font doesn't have a bold option.

Some clients have settings to change how subtitles are displayed

Hi, I have been learning a little bit more about subtitle formats lately.

As I understand,(correct me if Im wrong).

You need to pick a subtitle format for more options.

There are various types of subtitles, and each format has it own rules.
Some will have formatting tell the client how to display it.

I'm not sure how many subtitle formats Jellyfin supports,
but you will need to pick one with formatting rules for your specifications.
