Casting through DLNA not showing SRT subtitles properly, though VTT subtitles are fine. #16

Open mkelzeer opened 2 years ago

mkelzeer commented 2 years ago

Describe the bug I am casting from my PC, to my Smart TV using DLNA, a movie with arabic subtitles. The characters are all bugged, like this for example: image Subtitles format is SRT, encoding is UTF-8 with BOM (also tried without BOM), both not working properly. Tried with .VTT subtitles, it worked fine.

Can that be solved by a software option change from the dashboard or is that a bug from Jellyfin that needs to be fixed?

System (please complete the following information):

To Reproduce

  1. Cast from any device, to TV using DLNA, SRT subtitles with UTF-8 with BOM encoding
  2. See error

Expected behavior .SRT subtitles to work fine (like VTT subtitles), as they do on other clients, since the subtitles encoding is right.

Screenshots I can't screenshot my TV so here's an example of exactly how it looks like image

Additional context .SRT format is supported by the TV, I tried playing the movie and the subtitles on the TV from a flash memory and it worked just fine with no encoding problems.

This has been open quite a while. Can this be re-produced with the current build? If so, please update the bug report details. Thanks!
