Is there any way to add subtitles in DLNA videos?

Post by indyjones »

Hi everybody!
I just recived my Revue and I'm wandering if it's possible to add subtitles (srt or others) to videos I watch from my pc..

Till now, the only way I found is ripping them on the video, does another option (even not simple) exists?

Thank you very much!!!!!!!

Yes, Ive seen this with some dlna players. On my PS3, however, you will need the srt files for subtitles. And a DLNA server thats able to send them.

I'm trying to subtitle via DLNA but no success...

Has anybody, for instance, found a media player that can use subtitle via DLNA?

It displays only folders and audio/video files. Do you have any avi/mkv/mp4/mp3 files in those folders?

Yes, a lot of them, and in different extensions too...

I can open and watch them using ES and selecting GTVVIDEO as player, but not from GTVVIDEO's interface..

From ES no subtitles added, but I think fault is because I opened them from a different programme, and so opened only video file..

Tried changing names, autentication and psw but still only folders with no file in it..

Are you using the latest version? One of the early versions had problems when it did not display files inside smb folders when accessing password protected shares.

App 5*! Already bought in market as a donator.. thank you, this is what I like of Android, what is not taken in consideration by google programmers, is solved my great users!

Thankyou again!!
