Bug #3996
Mkvs generated by Tvheadend contain duplicated subtitles
0%
Description
Hi,
I'm using Tvheadend (4.1.2190) on a Synology NAS (ds215j) and I'm having issues with TV recordings. I'm using the Matroska stream profile for recordings as it seems to be the only way of enabling subtitles in Kodi. All is fine for live streaming; however, for many recordings most subtitles are duplicated. The recorded subtitles are of the type "TEXTSUB".
I've included a sample recording and the extracted subtitles.
The subtitles play fine in VLC, but in Kodi they appear duplicated.
Cheers,
Karl

I'm also having this issue in recordings with Textsub subtitles (using Tvheadend 4.2.6-42~g406ba887c).
There seems to be a (possibly related?) issue with duration too - duration is always 0 and the correct end timestamp is instead being set as start timestamp for a following empty subtitle instead.
If any more recording samples are needed, I'd be happy to help!

Just tested with 4.2.6-64~gd319ccc, but doesn't seem to help sadly (maybe partially, seems some are not duplicated and some are).
I've attached a 30 second sample of the same show recorded in both pass-thru and MKV profiles, and the subtitles extracted from each (for MKV, extracted using MKVToolNix mkvextract tool; for TS, remuxed with mkvmerge then extracted with mkvextract).

4.2.6-65-g2e8d7e3 appears to have fixed the duplicates. Many thanks!
