How to play movies with subs via external hardrive on TV?

[Velvet_Noir]

Hi, I have the option to right click and pick the subtitles on my Mac when watching movies in the VLC Player, but I can’t do this on the LG OLED, though. I already renamed the subtitle file to be the exact same as the video file and I did have the SRT file in the same folder where the movie is. However, when I connect the hard drive to the TV, the subtitle still doesn't appear. The format of my hardrive is NTFS. Can anyone please offer some advice?

Using the standard Movie Player

Select the title on the screen giving details 1920 x 1080 etc
Then use the scroll button to roll down and show a new line below
If your movie has a correctly named subtitle file, you will see a SUB button
Click on it and a new window will open in the top right
Firstly a button to turn subs on and off
Selections about the language and the synchronisaton
 

Hope that helps
