I have been waiting for version 1.2 since as you said it would be able to deliver external subtitles to sony TVs. However i have tried to play .mkv video with external .srt file and i couldn't see the subtitles. I have tried it with sony bravia models HX850 and EX720. Can you please advice?
Thanks,
Serviiocy

Subtitle feature :

- Check that subtitle feature is enabled on serviio console.
- Check that preferred langage is set.
- In a case the external (srt) subtitles are not displayed, the file might be corrupted or not suitable for viewing on your device. You might try fixing it with
SrtWiz.

@Illico,
Thanks for your prompt reply. Now subtitles are shown after i checked option 2 & 3. One more question. Does it support Greek subtitles? And if it does what is the roght abbreviation for the language (I have used el, gr, greek)?

If you only want external subs, you don't need language code, unless you have more srt files per movie.

Thank you both. I have already tried to convert the .srt file to UTF-8 encoding . All i had to do was to restart the server. Problem resolved.
