Introduction

This article explains a known issue affecting long subtitles in our video playback system. We are actively working on a fix to restore correct subtitle rendering and playback behavior.

Some videos may display subtitles incorrectly when the subtitle text is too long. This can affect subtitle layout, readability, or how the subtitles appear during playback.

Signs

  • Subtitles appear cut off or truncated.
  • Subtitle lines wrap unexpectedly or overlap other on-screen elements.

At this time, there is no manual workaround that fully resolves this issue in the playback system. Please review the following checklist while we prepare the upcoming update.

  • Confirm whether the issue only affects subtitles with longer text.
  • Check whether the same subtitle file behaves differently in other playback environments.
  • Verify that the subtitle source file is valid and correctly formatted.
