External subtitles when video is streamed via DLNA


Question

Posted

Hello,

I have

link hidden, please login to view
 and I've been trying to play video in mkv format streamed via DLNA, subtitle file is in .srt format in the same folder as the video and with same name.

But the TV doesn't show subtitle. However, to play the same video from a USB, TV perfectly reproduces the video with subtitles.

I'm running from Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

I wonder if there is still no support in WebOS for external subtitles via DLNA.

Update:

Nevermind. Got it. Support for external subtitle was added  in most recent code of Rygel.

      Greetings.
      A huge problem is connecting an external drive/flash drive to a TV with webos with a large number of files.
      It starts scanning all folders, which can take up to 20 minutes. Which is unacceptably long.
      On the netcast platform, everything was instant. Maybe it creates previews...maybe something else...
      How to disable disk scanning by the webos platform?

      I want to attach a device called a "StreamLine TV" to my LG TV that would broadcast the TV audio directly to my hearing aids. It apparently requires any one of the following three connectors to be on the TV:
      TOSLINK cable (optical / digital) Cinch cable (RCA / analog) Jack adapter Looking at the back of my TV it doesn't have an old-fashioned RCA jack which seems to be what they mean by a "Cinch cable (RCA / analog"). 

      I'm not sure if it has a TOSLINK cable. Searching for 'TOSLINK' in the PDF user guide returns nothing. But on the back of the TV there is a jack called OPTICAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT. Could that be a TOSLINK connector, maybe just not named as such in the user guide?

      Our LG TV does not show files properly when a new file is added in a directory.
      We have a Synology diskstation ethernet drive with DLNA and if we download a new file (in the dedicated download folder) or we copy a file from a PC to a folder, the file is not seen in the LG TV.
      Sometimes it's there in few minutes, sometimes it's not visible for days! turn on&off is not working.
      If we want to watch a video we need to load it on a USB stick, which is definitely not nice in 2019.
      Looking at synology forums the DLNA file list should be automatically updated when a new file is added, is there any way to force refresh from LG app?
       
      Thanks

      Hello , There is no setting to select subtitles for series and movies, I tried clicking on the colors on the remote, but nothing worked, I poked around in settings and found nothing. I sent several emails to the company, but no response was received. I remember that there was an option in the previous version, who has the same problem and what can be done?
