Cannot get subtitles to play
Added by Kane Elias over 8 years ago
Hi all,
For some reason I can never get Subtitles to play. I have open subtitles installed but every video I watch there is no subtitle stream avaialable.
I have also tried copying the .srt file to the same folder as the video but Showtime never picks it up. Here is an example of the file names
X Men Days of Future Past (2014) [1080p].mp4
X Men Days of Future Past (2014) [1080p].srt
Can anyone assist?
Cheers

I wonder what Showtime version do you use. And on which platform. And what media/share type... Log should help to see what's wrong.
In any case I'd suggest to update Showtime to the latest bleeding egde and check there...

Can you advise where I can get a copy of the log from?
Is there an option in Showtime to dump it?

Same here, sometimes sub don't works or skip some "lines" (randomly)!
This happen with mkv+srt and mkv with embedded sub. Didn't try with other file formats
Rolling back to 4.6 fix the problem
I don't know either where log file is located
EDIT: found it, i'm going to attach it ASAP

Can you confirm using 4.6 and having subs with the same title as the file will work?

I rolled back to 4.6.10 and placed the two files in the same folder on a USB drive and it worked.
Will test on new bleeding edge as i want to see if the wrapping is working as well.
