You are using the default settings that disable subtitles for english, and that is your case.
I did read it. I read it again and I still can't get it to work.

If you're referring to the language priority settings, I've tried various settings, to include eng for the Subtitles language priority and *,eng;*,und for the Audio/subtitle language priority and that doesn't work.

Note that if *,* and leaving it blank are not correct for the Subtitles language priority (to always display subtitles), this FAQ should be changed: http://www.universalmediaserver.com/faq/#Video3

Good, so you will need to post a new log with the correct parameters that you have set now, as it was not the case in your precedent log, that we can look at your issue.

I've attached the results leaving Subtitles language priority blank and setting Audio/subtitle language priority to *,eng;*,und

You have edited your UMS.conf, but leaved the line commented so...no effect.

Code: Select all

# audio_subtitles_languages = *,eng;*,und
Why don't you simply do it from the GUI's Transcoding Settings subtitles sub tab ?

Also, for anyone reading this in the future, please note that I ran into a problem using *,eng;*,und (subtitles wouldn't play) and had better luck using *,*
