I purchased Pro so I could use Subtitles when viewing videos on my iPad. MediaBrowser (and subtitles, in a full computer browser) seem to work fine, but it looks like there's no way to activate Subtitles in Safari on iOS.

If I enable Burned-in subtitles, videos won't play at all on iOS.

Any hints or solutions? Thanks...

Can you post detailed log of playing the file with enabled burned-in subtitles?

Yep, will do, as soon as I get a chance. Should be in the next few days. Thanks, back shortly with the log.

I have a similar problem playing an AVC/AAC MP4 file using the provided ios profile on Android Chrome.

MediaBrowser on iOS doesn't support softsubs, only hardsubs (burned in)

Is that a limitation of ios/android player or the MediaBrowser implementation?

Posted: **Thu May 14, 2015 10:10 pm**

Mybe both - I'm not sure if there is a subtitles support for the HTML5 players on Android/ iOS, but if there is it definitely is not srt, but some other format to which I'd have to convert. So it's not going to happen, at least any time soon.

Hey Petr, just want to make sure you saw the logs I posted. They are from the original issue of the OP (me).

Is the transcoding getting deleted before Serviio is getting a chance to use it?

Posted: **Mon May 25, 2015 6:44 pm**

Weird, FFmpeg gets killed 10 seconds after it starts.

Can you try to run

Code:: ffmpeg -threads auto -i /Users/john/Movies/popcorn keepers/The Rewrite (2014) [1080p]/The.Rewrite.2014.1080p.BluRay.x264.YIFY.mp4 -y -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -profile:v baseline -level 3 -preset veryfast -crf 10 -vf subtitles=filename='/Users/john/Movies/popcorn keepers/The Rewrite (2014) \[1080p\]/The.Rewrite.2014.1080p.BluRay.x264.YIFY.srt':original_size=1920x808:charenc=UTF-8 -r 24000/1001 -g 15 -bsf:v h264_mp4toannexb -flags -global_header -c:a copy -map 0:0 -map 0:1 -sn -f segment -segment_time 10 -segment_format mpegts -segment_list_flags +cache -segment_list /var/folders/zz/zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n0000000000000/T/Serviio/transcoding-temp-52-ios-ORIGINAL-e4b8026738dc4349ef6a625406b8b88e.stf/playlist.m3u8 /var/folders/zz/zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n0000000000000/T/Serviio/transcoding-temp-52-ios-ORIGINAL-e4b8026738dc4349ef6a625406b8b88e.stf/segment%05d.ts

ffmpeg is located under /Library/Application Support/Serviio/lib/

Thanks Petr....

I created my own temp directory, it looks like the command worked. It took about 50 minutes to finish, and it consumed 19 Gb.

I opened the resulting playlist.m3u8 file in VLC, and it plays. I don't see the subtitles though.

Did some more testing from my iPad. Same thing - ffmpeg gets killed after 10 seconds.

It's tricky to try to watch the temp dir under /var, because it gets deleted as soon as the job is killed. But I wrote a bash loop to get a look at what's happening on the filesystem during those 10 seconds. No files are being written at all, no playlist.m3u8 and no *.ts files. The transcoding-temp-43-ios-ORIGINAL-79b300545d3e72ed0fedc42df0c14234.stf/ dir (or something like it) gets created, then it's deleted after the 10 seconds are up. It never contains anything from what I can see.

I think I've seen something like this on my system yesterday. Basically, the first time hardsubs are used, fontconfig (a library used to render the fonts) creates a cache of all the available fonts on your system. It can take a while. Can you try to view the movie on another device, with hardsubs? (like a TV, not through the MediaBrowser).

Sorry it's taking me so long to get back to this. I plan to check it on SmartShare on my LG Smart TV next time I'm there and have a chance.
