Subtitle color always white for external subtitles * SOLVED *

Post by Pan Borowik »

Hello!

I'm using the latest UMS version with Panasonic ST60 series TV, and it works great apart from the subtitle color for when I use external .srt subtitles.
I have selected orange color in options for the subtitles, and when I play a .mkv file that has the subtitles already inside, it's working just fine.
However, when I play a video with external subtitles in .srt format, the color is always white.
Is there another setting somewhere that I should change?
It's a clean install with default config, the only changes I've made are the color selection and adding the source folder with movies to the list.

Check "Use font settings..." in the FFmpeg tab.
