Usually I had been using SRT subs with most of the movies or TV shows, however, lately I noticed an issue with the subs, namely they will play for a little while (2-4 minutes), then disappear. If I back track 10 seconds they comeback. So I started looking at what is wrong, and I can point to the subs format, which is TX3G.
Apparently Handbrake automatically converts SRT subs to TX3G format when encoding to MP4. Regular Windows media players such as VLC or MPC-HC, seem to handle the subs OK, but when I play the same video in Kodi (18.3 and 18.6), I have the problem. Originally I thought this was a Kodi problem, but when I revert back to the default Estuary skin, the problem goes away, so it's an issue with Rapier.
Can someone look into this and see what's going on? How does Rapier's handling of the subs differ from the default skin, Estuary?
