I just recently converted from kodi to jellyfin after a Nas hardware crash. I run the server in a docker container on my Nas and the client on a Nvidia shield. Works great, but there is one niggle I haven’t figured out and had much better experience on kodi. Subtitles.
I can’t seem to find any adjustments for the subtitles in case they don’t fit the video completely. There is no menu I have found that allows for adjusting the timing of subtitles.
How are you all coping with this? I use the arr stack and get subtitles through bazarr.
How do you all handle these things?
Depends on the platform you’re using. Mobile you have the integrated player that doesn’t support subtitle offset and the web player that does. Everything else is a version of the web player basically and they all support subtitle offset
Nvidia shield is a android device so it tracks that this is the mobile player without srt adjustment. That sucks though. Maybe I should look at kodi and jelly plugin…
If it uses he android client there should be a setting to choose which player, at least with mobilie there is.
On the client go to settings -> client settings -> video player
It might let you change it, you’ll want the web player.
Oh? Very interesting! I was not aware that this was available as a setting. Thanks for the heads up
Are you using subtitle sync in bazarr? I don’t use jellyfin, but have found that bazarr has fixed most of my subtitles that were not in sync just by enabling the option. I think it’s CPU intensive though, so don’t do the whole library at once.
