    I really like Jellyfin and push for it, but since last release, it became barely usable. Unfortunately, it made me and all my users switch to Plex again. Where they preferred to buy the respective Plex clients instead of dealing with Jellyfin issues. It is sad, it could be money donated to Jellyfin at some time.

    Seriously, if Jellyfin doesn’t fix all subtitles issues with their clients, it will be really hard to be taken as a serious competitor in the area. I hope they take this issue seriously and fix it asap before further damage to the project happens.

      I use the Roku and web client with subtitles regularly and haven’t experienced any issues.

      Have bug reports been opened for the clients you and your users are having issues with?

        Lol at people down voting without a clue.

        Anyway, that issue is 1 year old, and subtitles for some reason just keep getting worse with each update. It is not being taken seriously.

        It is so easy to reproduce that there must be something more involved to it, explaining why some people dont have the issue.

        I tested and validated with these clients: web, roku, android, android-tv, fire and LG

        All have the same issue. So maybe some combination of factors with server.

        The bugs are different depending on the media, sometimes delayed subtitles and most of times no subtitles at all. Also, trying to switch subtitles to other languages sometimes just dont take effect unless the playback is restarted. Anyway, it is baraly usable.

          Plex has a bunch of infuriating issues that have been ignored for years, but I’ve yet to have an issue with playback.
          Looking forward to jumping on the jellyfin train one day. I have tested it in the past, and it’s insane how slow the stupid plex ui is on comparison.
