Hi,

I had a problem with subtitles for a long time.
I store everything on an FTP server, and for lots of episodes it works perfectly.
For some others, subtitles won't show until I reboot once my raspberry pi (I'm using openelec).
And for a few, it never works. The srt files are fine, my naming convention are the same for all the episodes (show name - 1x01 - name.en.srt) so I guess that's not the issue.

There is the debug part about subtitles :

Quote:20:32:30 T:2550133840 ERROR: Open - Unhandled exception
20:32:30 T:2550133840 ERROR: Open - Error opening /storage/downloads/Orphan Black - 2x09 - Things Which Have Never Yet Been Done.en.srt
20:32:30 T:2550133840 ERROR: OpenStream - Unable to create subtitle parser
20:32:30 T:2550133840 WARNING: OpenSubtitleStream - Unsupported stream 0. Stream disabled.

But that's not very helpfull. I of course checked, the file is there and readable by xbmc. It is a valid srt file that mplayer or vlc can read without any problems.

Thanks
FTP is read only on XBMC, you cannot save subtitles there. Select some other location to save subs to

Also, let's see full Debug Log
I have the same problem on xios
