What's the policy of playbin2 to handle multiple subtitle sources?

[Chen, Jacob]

Hi here,

 

I’m using Playbin2 to make a video player, I found that when playing a video file like mkv which contains with subtitle, the subtitle will be displayed automatically, but in this case if I assign an external to suburi,

Only external subtitle will be displayed. Is this correctly on playbin2? What’s the policy to handle subtitle displaying like this case?

 

Regards,

Jacob

You have to select the subtitles that should be played by setting the
current-text property. To get information (e.g. language) about
the different subtitle streams you can use the get-text-tags and
get-text-pad action signals.

The order of the subtitle streams as exposed by playbin2 has no real
meaning, the first ready-to-displayed subtitle gets number 0, the next
number 1, etc. This could be different every time
