There is not a special key on your remote (eg. Options) for external subs - the older Panasonic TV's did something like that and its not always obvious.
Other than that I cant think of why it wouldn't work. I would probably just mux the sub-titles into the media file, which should, based on what you've stated fix the issue (by avoiding it
).
I have tried to activate subtitle and deactivate subs on my tv.
I got option: Off, On, and On during muted sound.
The names are correct, i also tried "themoviename.forced.srt"
Before i got the 8809, Tv from 2012 i Think, And on that one Everything worked fine. So nothing is Changes on my computer accoriding to names.
8809 vas like some kind of hybrid when it comes on OS. Menus were Unix I Think and main OS were Android 4.4.
Newer Philips are on pure Android, i think version 8 (oreo)
Dont know if there is software or hardware on newer Philips that causes problems
Ive been thinking of muxing files, but sometimes i got a whole season my GF want to Watch and then it will take time to mux.
So muxing files is just a way to walkaround the problem and not fixing the real issue
