I noticed that Xplay is transcoding when subtitles have no language:
Subtitle: UTF-8 [S: srt]Same subtitle with language chosen plays fine:
Subtitle: UTF-8 [S: English [eng] (srt)]
Wow, you might be onto something here … I wondered why SOME of the SRT subtitles in a video file require transcoding and some not… very annoying. Lately I was watching Start Trek Discovery which had the following subtitle options (T stands for the red “transcode” mark):
GERMAN (SRT)
GERMAN FORCED (SRT) (T)
ENGLISH (SRT)
ENGLISH FORCED (SRT) (T)
So while ALL subtitles are SRTs which should not require transcoding two of them do - unfortunately exactly the ones I needed (forced only). The normal ones played fine without transcoding
@bublikoff : is there a way to fix this so that ALL SRT subtitles can be played without transcoding?
