Captions/Subtitles section is now white text on white background

Postby syd » 10 May 2023 08:38

Haven't seen this bug reported - but on my iPad Pro, the captions section is white text on an almost white background.
Almost impossible to see the options text.
Anyone else getting this on their iPad?

This is fixed for the 3.4.1 update that will appear today or tomorrow depending on Apple's clearance.

Have the other bugs mentioned in other threads here by myself and others also been fixed with this update?

Hi @fkuehne

Thanks for the link! So does the fix “ · Fix crash when exporting media to other apps” help with the issue I was having when clicking the “Open in VLC” button within the Files app or is that another issue?

I was unaware of an "Open In" issue from other apps to VLC (just the other way around), but it seems to be working for me with today's 3.4.1 update.

Thanks!
The subtitle sections problem is fixed. And so is the tapping the X to close the video.
