Hi everyone,
I wanted to ask about a subtitle behavior I’m seeing on Jellyfin Android TV, before opening a GitHub issue, to make sure I’m understanding it correctly.
I have WebVTT subtitles that use cue positioning like this:
00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:26.000 line:20%
Hello!
On Android TV, the subtitle sometimes renders with a visible tag at the beginning:
{\an8} Hello!
When inspecting the .vtt file as plain text, there are no ASS/SSA tags in the file.
I’m not yet sure whether this is expected behavior, a conversion artifact, or a parsing/rendering issue specific to the Android TV client.
Has anyone else noticed something similar with WebVTT positioning on Android TV, or knows if this is a known limitation?
If needed, I can provide a minimal sample file to test.
Thanks!
