Subtitle format - Armentis - 2024-07-23
Hi,
I use Jellyfin on Mac mini M1 (no transcoding) and asahi Linux Fedora.
I have problems manytimes with subtitles et audio language.
What is the best solution for my set up ?
I can work on .mp4 .mkv before, what is the easy soft (windows), MKVToolNix ?
Thanks for your help.

What problems are you having with subtitles and audio? That you can't select different tracks?
RE: Subtitle format - Armentis - 2024-07-23
Thanks for your reactivity.
Yes, sometimes, I can't select differents tracks, or subtitles. Works with VLC without problems. Jellyfin Media Player or Swiftfin (ios) works better. The problem is manytimes with Jellyfin for andoid TV and web browser.
May I convert subtitle format beffor and mux with MKVToolNix ? Which one is the better for Jellyfin ?

Do you have ffmpeg installed on your Mac? Most of the Jellyfin clients require remuxing when you select an audio or subtitle track that isn't the first in the list. Regardless if the container is MKV or MP4.
We have ffmpeg builds for M equipped Macs.

Can you share your full jellyfin log via pastebin?

This log indicates that Jellyfin is failing to start altogether. Port 8096 is already in use. Do you have more than one instance of Jellyfin running? Or do you also have Emby installed?
RE: Subtitle format - Armentis - 2024-07-23
Yes, I actually have one on windows. It works by the way.
I extract sub with gMKVToolnix and that works.
RE: Subtitle format - TheDreadPirate - 2024-07-23
I meant you have something binding to port 8096 on your Fedora machine.
Code:
sudo ss -tlp | grep 8096What is the output of that command?
