Subtitle support

I just bought the ReadyNas Duo, especially to share media to my Samsung B650 flat TV.

Unfortunately when playing movies on the TV through the built-in DLNA feature, like Xvid, DivX or MKV, the subtitles files (*.srt) are not shown on my TV.
Is streaming of seperate subtitle files supported by ReadyDLNA?

I hope this is or will be supported.
Any feedback is appreciated.

Conditions:
- I use ReadyDLNA 0.15 on my ReadyNas Duo.
- The subtitle files have the same name (before the extension) as the movie files (i.e. "movie.avi" and "movie.srt").
- The subtitles are shown properly when playing the movie directly on my PC with subtitle supported players (like BSPlayer).
- I installed Samsung PC Share Manager 1.5 on my PC. This is used as media DLNA server for the Samsung TV. When using this, all subtitle files are correctly streamed to my TV.
