Opinion of 1 Jellyfin programmer
I mention JellyFin because at some stage it will become a business and they’ll start charging too,

or it will get left behind because it’s free.
What do you mean left behind? By who? Anyway, what’s wrong with being left behind?
We’re not beholden to anyone. We’re not in competition with anyone. We’re not in a race, so I don’t understand how we could get left behind.
We’ll keep doing what we do with the amazing team of people who volunteer their time, and other solutions can do whatever they want to do, I don’t care because, again, it’s not a competition!
🤘 Enjoy
My suggestion would be to post this in the troubleshooting forum. The troubleshooting team is amazing at helping finding resolutions to things like this. Much better than I, that’s for sure😆, I’m just a programmer.
Yeah, the server is logging that it can’t parse the SRT file. Sounds like it has issues that need to be resolved before it can send the subtitle text over to the Roku client.

Straight off the noto font repo: https://github.com/notofonts/noto-cjk/tree/main/Sans#region-specific-subset-otfs
Couple of things to note.
The Roku has very little file space. Ensure your fonts are as small as possible!
Also, Jellyfin will only grab the 1st font returned by the API. Even if you have a folder full of fonts, whatever is listed first is what it’s going to grab - even if it’s a font file format that Roku can’t use.
I suggest using the otf format. It’s what I have and confirm it works with custom subs.
Due to these limitations, my suggestion is to only have 1 otf font file that is less than 5mb in the fallback font folder.
You are being watched…
🤘 Thanks

My reason? That’s the color scheme the our designer supplied the logos in.
His reason? I dunno 😄
A PR has been opened to fix this issue. It’ll be in the next release. https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-roku/pull/215

I just want to watch some damn videos without being someone else’s payday.
Amen!
Neat, I just figured Roku clients were just going to get just enough attention to work.
Nope. We have a team dedicated to working on the Roku client. They’re constantly working on not only bug fixes, but also improvements and new functionality.
🤘 Right on! Thanks for posting these.
Several of these have never been brought up to the devs, so this is the first time seeing anyone ask for them.
The Roku client for jellyfin is also a futureless husk of a client.
How so? What do you see as missing?
Thanks!
