[RESOLVED] Embedded Subtitles Samsung Series C TV

Hey Guys,

I was wondering if someone could help me. I'm new to Serviio and have had a huge amount of problems getting subtitled to stream to my Samsung UA46C7000 TV. Through searching the forums I've managed to get them working 95% of the way. However I'm running into an issue which I cant seem to resolve or find anyone who has run into a similar issue. As such I thought I would post and hope that someone out there can help.

The issue is basically that when I play a mkv file with embedded subtitles, some of tthe subtitles will display the following txt (or something similar) before the subtitle text.

<Font face="open Sans Semibold" Size="36"> Subtitle Text


Other subtitles will just display normally without any text before them. This even happens in the same mkv file, where some will have the pre-text & the next wont.

These are my current Serviio subtitle settings

These are the settings of the file I'm trying to play. I had to alter them to actually get them to appear in the first place as it seems that Serviio wont display subtitles if
1.) The audio language isn't defined
2.) The subtitle language isn't defined

Forcing subtitle burn in seems to have resolved this issue... no idea why.

When I checked the cache and saw that virtually everything was being transcoded anyway. I figured there was no point in not burning the subtitles in
