We had 2 separate entries for srt: external and embed. I guess the server just used the first entry (external). It doesn't really do much because we don't support embedded subs in ExoPlayer anyway.

Changes

  • Remove srt as external from ExoPlayer subtitle profiles
  • Remove srt as external from libVLC subtitle profiles

this breaks direct playing external srt subtitles and forces them to be burned in. Tested using exoplayer with external .srt and a video that doesn't have any embedded subtitles.

I've personally not had issues playing embedded subtitles. But my guess is that the "fall through to external handling" logic here may be responsible for issues.

// not using vlc - fall through to external handling

So that means that the server actually allows for multiple delivery methods for a subtitle format.. Didn't know that.
