Serviio 1.4 MKV with external .srt subtitle in WD TV Live

How I can play MKV videos with external .srt subtitle in WD TV Live?

[DenyAll]

My (limited) understanding is that the WD Live doesn't support external subtitles with MKV files over DLNA.

Until WD Live firmware upgrades fix this (if ever) you will either have to:

• Embed the subtitles into the MKV file using a tool like mkvtoolnix or XMedia Recode; or
• Burn the subtitles into the transcoded stream using Serviio

If it was me, I'd do the first option as it is a quick, once off process, that doesn't involve transcoding the video stream.
