MKV with subtitles dosent work on Samsung UE46ES6575

Post by Eruantane »

I have got a Samsung TV model UE46ES6575 and when I try to play some mkv files that has subtitles in them the subtitle doesn't show. I'm not getting any error messages and if i check the settings on the TV it is like the file doesn't have any subtitles. If I play the file on my computer in vlc media player it shows the subtitles just fine. Some mkv files with subtitles plays just fine and others I get no subtitles at all.

I have UMS version 4.1.1 now but I had the same problem with version 3.6.4.

Anyone that can help me with this?

From the manual of your TV I have found that it supports following Internal subtitles type

Code: Select all

SubStation Alpha
Advanced SubStation Alpha
SubRip
MPEG-4 timed text
but your MKV videos also contain PGS and DVD subtitles which are not supported and you cannot see them.

Actually you can play not working MKV files from the TRANSCODE folder. Subtitles don't work only when MKV files are streamed.
