Hello. I just update to new 1.1 version and i decide to use the trial media browser. Everything works fine and smooth exept the greek subtitle encoding. I cannot manage to change the encoding and the subs appear with strange fonts. On my local network on samsung renderer everything works fine but on my browser is not. It doesn't matter if i use media browser localy or remotly, the issue persists. Is there something i miss or not? Also i noticed that the version of flow player is old. Is there a way to update it or not?
Thanks

Thanks for the answer but I had already found this answer. It doesn't help me. it's not possible to do those actions for more than 2000 subtitles. And if i could it's not sure that this mod works also localy with serviio and my renderers. It could be easier if tere was a button on the player like the quality selection to choose the close caption encoding.

Hello, i have the same problem with subs encodings. All my subtitles are in Windows 1250 encoding, in Czech language. Flowplayer does not show this subtitles correctly. I made for myself Java app to change encodings of all my subtitles files to UTF-16BE, but it creates a lot of other problems, like displaying this subtitles on WD TV Live, because WD TV Live does not support UTF-16.

It would be really great to just say to flowplayer to show subtitles in CP1250 and not have to change file encodings.
