Subtitle location on screen incorrect

Subtitles seem to show in incorrect location following app resize on Desktop UWP.

I have the same problem but only with external .srt subtitles with subtitles ssa all ok

Can you reproduce on the desktop client

Could you send the external file so I can test on the development branch?

There is no problem with the desktop client. You can easily reproduce this bug by playing this file : https://mkvtoolnix.download/samples/vsshort-vorbis-subs.mkv. The problem appears when you reduce the width of the window.

the problem keeps this new version

NOK minimize:

OK fullscreen:

Do you have HiDPI?

Added high label

No. 100% scaling and resolution 1680x1050. The problem appears when you reduce the width of the window.

Thanks.

I have this same issue on Xbox One app. When play MKV with internal SRT sub I have the subtitle centered almost in the center of the screen (both horizontal and vertical). If the SRT is put as external file the problem persist as equal. Don't have any other type of subs to test, so I can complain about other formats... but I think that this is a problem with XY position instead the file format. Would be really nice if you can add a reposition option (like the WDTV Live and many other players). Keep the good work and thanks for this great app!

Fixed with this patch https://patches.videolan.org/patch/14716/

Status changed to closed

Steve Lhomme and Jean-Baptiste Kempf, tnaks for the update. But I think this patch solved the problem only on PC based app, no?! Since I have this issue on Xbox One app, I wonder if this patch can solve the problem to Xbox One users too...

Xbox1 and PC share the same video output code, so it's solved for any UWP applications, but also for the regular VLC application, if configured to use d3d11

Sorry about my lack of comprehension, but how can the PC patch directly reflect on Xbox app version?! An updated version of the VLC app must be send to Microsoft to approve before release, am I right?! Untill then, I'll not see any improvement or fix on the app on my Xbox (please clarify). Anyway, I'm very glad to see that a fix is on the way for the subtitle position... just need to wait a little longer for a new release on console!

The XBox is a kind of PC.

So at next release, this problem will be fixed.
