Hdr subtitles - stefx - 2017-11-22
Hi all
Is there a way to fix subtitles in hdr?
Because in all colors it’s very too bright.
I will post a screenshot

You can try setting the subtitle color to gray, or a different color.

Certainly something that I also noticed when watching Netflix stuff in HDR/Dolby Vision. The subtitles are too bright.

Yes, that is really a problem. With external subtitles you can fix it by making them dark grey <font color="#808080"> but that is no remedy for the blindingly bright internal subtitles.
Ideal would be a solution which only makes the subtitles darker for HDR sources like "IF HDR=on THEN subtitles=dark grey"

Can you just for fun, disable Mediacodec Surface? Keep the other Mediacodec enabled please and retry?

PQ EOTF has absolute luminance which means RGB/YCbCr code values are fixed. "64" would be 0 nits and "940" would be 10,000 nits. "512" is 100 nits. If you want the subtitles to be dimmer, then you have to use a color that has code values around 500 or even lower.

same issue here. I'm using a linux box, is there any way to set subtitles in dark grey?

Anyone found a solution yet? Grey or White subtitles are both superbright white in HDR on LG OLED TV.
RE: Hdr subtitles - stefx - 2018-05-20
may be developers can add an extra "hdr color"?

Hi.
I recently bought a Sony TV and I have just faced the same issue. Subtitles are so dammed bright when an HDR movie is played, that you get flashed in dark scenes.
There could be a way to choose a custom color in Kodi, not only just white, grey or yellow... Or just a way to adjust their brightness for these situations.
Really, it makes them very difficult to read and almost avoiding them.
Thanks!

Same here, this is very annoying. Is there a solution in the making?
