Well I just bought a brand new Samsung BluRay player BD-C5500 the firmware on it is the latest available as to date (BSP-C5500WWB-1020.1)
I also just bought a ReadyNas DUO with RAIDiator 4.1.7 [1.00a043] and the included ReadyDLNA v1.0.18.2.
I am only using the ReadyNas with SqueezeCenter 7.5.3 (no problems at all) and ReadyDLNA.
I have no success with .srt files in the same folder and the same name as the movie (movie.mkv and movie.srt). The movie plays fine but without subs and when I press the subtitle button on the remote I get "Not available".
If I put the same files on an USB-stick connected directly to my player or share the files on my computer using Samsungs PC Share Manager 4.2 software I get the subtitles right away and if I press the subtitle button on the remote I get the menu where I can change a few settings so this tells me the player is able to handle .srt.
Am I missing something??
Before buying this combo I looked around on different forums and was convinced that .srt would work on (newer) samsungs by now if I just made sure the ReadyDLNA was 1.0.16+
