Wrong ASS subs position for Anime in JMP - jelly jelly - 2024-02-26
Hi, please don't laugh if you recognize the media but I noticed that the ASS subtitles for an anime episode in the Windows Jellyfin Media Player are wrongly positioned.
In JMP:

How it's intended and correclty displays in jellyfin web player and potplayer:

What could be the issue here for JMP to display them incorrectly like that?
I'm using JMP 1.9.1 and the only lines that appear in the log when I play the episode are:

This is a known issue and the solution is being worked out on the MPV side.

I created an mpv.conf file in %LOCALAPPDATA%\JellyfinMediaPlayer\ and added the line sub-ass-vsfilter-blur-compat=no tried to restart both the server and JMP but it still shows as the same. Is this setting not supported yet?

bump
any way to watch anime with correctly displayed signs & songs subs in the jellyfin media player? or should I look at alternatives?
the web player does work for most files I have but some stutter and get a lot of dropped frames for some reason. was hoping to find an all in one solution

You could try Jellyfin MPV-Shim.

thanks, DreadPirate I will try it 👍😊
Update: MPV-Shim seems to work for all of my media that had troubles with the web player or JMP. Also seems like I can configure custom shortcuts to jump to next chapter etc. Looks great!
