subtitle default - dkangel - 2020-03-12

hello everyone

i'm muxing my mkv with these settings

video -> und
audio -> eng default NO
audio -> french default YES
sub -> french full default NO

kodi play the french audio track by default but show also the french subtitles.
why kodi don't follow mkv settings ?

and a second question, in kodi settings i can set audio track to "media defined" so it play french by default. good.
why is'nt there such a setting for subs ? so kodi would not display french sub because they aren't set to default in my mkv.

thank you

Try Settings/Player/Language -> Preferred Subtitle Language -> Forced only.

What if you set the default audio as the 1st audio stream in the mkv file, and not as 2nd audio stream?
Does it make a difference in Kodi?
