Subtitles gone in 1.72 version

[tupanzinho]

Hi there,

I had 1.6 PMS version and was able to watch several video file extensions (avi, mkv, mp4) with *.srt external subtitles.

I upgraded to 1.72 version and the same files, same subtitles won't work.

More specifically, a mkv file won't play an english srt subtitle but instead a Finnish subtitle that is somehow embedded in the mkv.

How to disable this Finnish subtitle and enable srt?

All the Best!!!

Have exactly the same problem! Please, there some way to fix it?

I want PS3 Media Server to load by default the external SRT subtitle instead of the embeded subs in the MKV. On the last version of PS3MS all worked perfect, but now on 1.72 it loads the embeded sub always.

I found the solution, use the folder TRANSCODER and select the option of the Undetermined Sub, but I want it to do it by default like on older versions.

I have the same problem.
PMS are completly ignore external subtitles (srt, ass) when iam watching MKV files (but it works fine with other formats, avi,mp4 ...), even i use transcoding directory and choose external subtitles track.

Same problem here, I can only use mkvtoolnix to transform the .mp4 into a .mkv and add the .srt file in it.
