Android TV Box subtitle encoding problem - Android Stick & Console Computers General

Their guys; i have some questions for professionals.
I have Minix Neo X5 mini (4.2.2) Android TV Box.
I tried embedded video player with Turkish subtitle(mkv video with external srt subtitle). But Turkish specific characters(like ş,ö,ç,ğ,ü) does not display correctly. It seems that default font is not compatible with these charset. Is it possible to change this font with compatible one?
An other problem is;
I tried MX Player with same mkv video and subtitle srt file. I deselect embedded subtitle. Turkish characters are ok. But the hearing impaired subtitle always active with external subtitle. So both subtitle shown at the same time(Turkish and embedded english). Do you konw any solution?

Need suggestion for MX player pro and MKV with embedded subtitle

Hi,
I tried to search and look around in this forum and still cannot resolve my problem.
I just installed MX Player pro. I ripped and made one MKV movie file from bluray with embedded subtitles in the file.
I tested the file with my TV and DUNE HD player and also tested this file on my computer with XBMC, VLC media play. The movie can be played smoothly and I can control, select, enable, or disable subtitles as usual.
However, when I loaded the file to my Samsung Note 8, MX player pro can play movie smoothly and fine. The only problem is that there is no subtitle shown, although I selected or enabled subtitles.
I also tried enable and disable in Setting > Subtitle > Enable Subtile and Setting > Subtitle > Enable Embeded Subtiles , but it doesn't help.
Please suggest.

Did you check subtitle track button on the playback screen?
There may a speech balloon button on the upper right corner of the playback screen, if video have one or more subtitle tracks.

Hi bleu8888, do you mean the mini button on the right corner? There are H/W, subtitles, audio.
Yes I checked it. I enabled one, two, or sometimes even all of them, but no subtitle is shown.
Note: I just tested the file with "VLC for android" and it works as expected. All subtitles work fine.
Thus, I guess there must be some missing or incorrect configuration in my MX Player Pro. Please help.

Hmm, pgs subs shouldn't generally cause a problem... as bleu requested, mind sharing your file somewhere? If the file's big, could you clip out a few minutes and share that instead?

Hi bleu8888
I installed it. It looks like an updated part, doesn't it? Anyway, it works as expected now.
Thank a lot!
You can use Avdshare Video Converter to removing subtitles from MKV with the help of an MKV Subtitle Remover named MKV Subtitle Remover.

Use external subtitle bu default (instead of embedded)

How can I force MX Player Pro 1.8.8 to always display the external subtitle only, instead of MKV embedded subtitles ?
Looks like lately many MKV files have embedde subtitles - mostly English.
Even tough I have selected Settings > Subtitle > Prefered language: Romanian > I still get the embedded subtitle instead of external one.
I have to go to Subtitles bubble icon, de-select internal, select external, play....

. The issue is that external subtitle language cannot be detected. Embedded subtitles can have language tag to distinguish between multiple subtitles. So, Preferred subtitles language won't work in this occasion.

All right.
But is there a way to prefer external subtitles over internal ones ?
Regardless of language ?
I think some older versions of MX Player had an option to enable/disable embedded subtitles completely.
Of course, I can remove internal subtitles using mkvtoolnix, but I don't always have the time to check the files and remove subtitles.
Occurs that embedded subs that comes in tv shows, always comes in the same language of the show.. resuming, are closed captions. In that case, external subs are prefered as default.

Embedded subtitles are not working on MX Player

HI, Embedded subtitles have not been working on MX Player Pro anymore. They used to play fine when the subtitles box was checked but now there are no subtitles displayed. The information on the mp4 videos says 3GPP timed text subtitles.

Hi,
can you share a sample clip?
HI, I wasn't sure if you are asking for a link to one of the videos? I can't post a link on the forum yet, but if you go to jw.org under videos at the bottom of the page you can select any of the newer videos and it should have an option for subtitles.
I selected the subtitles box under the video and then downloaded it with Google Chrome onto my Android tablet.
It shows under info on mx player that stream #3 has subtitles codes 3gpp timed text subtitle. 72 bits/sec, english
If that's not what you meant by clips please let me know. Thanks

Subtitle Function: MX Player does not interpret Script Instructions in SRT Files

MX Player is popular in Android TVs, nowadays.
This site "https://sites.google.com/site/mxvpen/features" says MX Player does support "text styling and coloring script", but it does not explain how or which format of the subtitle this assertion was meant to be. Perhaps, it means SSA may be, but certainly not in SRT format.
I mean, MX Player does support displaying SRT file format subtitle, but refuse to display according to instruction tags on the text line, such as <i>...</i>, {\fs12\fnCalibri}, <font color=#AAAAAAFF>....</font>, etc.
I like helping community to translate and sync subtitles, and I find SRT being most popular.
I really hope MX Player would considering in supporting SRT text styling and coloring scripts, so that what appears on PC (VLC, Codec Home Media Player, etc) may also appear on the Android TVs using MX Player.
Kindly share a sample subtitle. It will help us to investigate further.
