I get the message The file you’ve selected is not currently supported Downloaded a title from Hulu and it played fine Not sure what setting might be causin...

Num1cboysfn

0xFeedBeef I see that there are EIA-608 in the recent download I did no subtitles

Num1cboysfn

0xFeedBeef Yep

0xFeedBeef

Num1cboysfn how comfortable are you using command line?

Num1cboysfn

0xFeedBeef Do you have any thoughts on the fact that these files play on my laptop and ipad but not the TV?

Num1cboysfn

Not sure what that is so I can’t answer that?

0xFeedBeef

Num1cboysfn my guess is that Sammy doesn’t know what to do with the CC tracks and gives up, and chances are, if you play those videos in the Movies & TV app on your Windows machine, the app will display proper closed captioning 🤷‍♂️

0xFeedBeef

ok, let’s try something different, did you try downloading to mkv instead of mp4?

Num1cboysfn

0xFeedBeef Yes Same result.

0xFeedBeef

Num1cboysfn does the mkv file have CC tracks too?

Num1cboysfn

0xFeedBeef Let me see

Num1cboysfn

I must have deleted the MKV I’ll do another one Meanwhile here is the Hulu title that worked

Num1cboysfn yup, the hulu one doesn’t have a text track with EIA-608… I mean it could be utterly unrelated, but it’s a factor that’s different between the two

Num1cboysfn

0xFeedBeef Ok Doing a MKV now. This one has been the worst problem with Streamfab ever. But I think its more a TV problem

Num1cboysfn

I set the prrogram to do an MKV and it did an MP4 again.

you might have to set it to mkv, then exit SF, then start SF again, I never know changing what options need SF to restart 😆

Num1cboysfn

The settings say MKV but it did MP4

0xFeedBeef

Num1cboysfn did you restart SF?

Num1cboysfn

0xFeedBeef Yes Restarted again Prefrences say MKV just did another MP4

0xFeedBeef

Num1cboysfn try choosing MKV (MKVToolNix) instead of MKV (ffmpeg), saving, and restarting
