DVBViewer plugin support pass through of DVB-T subtitles

Does the DVBViewer plugin support pass through of DVB-T subtitles.

I've been experimenting with Live TV on Emby and using HDHOMERUN tuner and then connecting emby directly, via TVHEADEND or via DVBViewer.  All work and show video and audio, but DVBviewer does not show subtitles live, or in recordings.  I can see the subtitles when using DVBViewer directly.

Hi @kaledi
I can't answer your subtitle DVBViewer question but wanted to ask, why are you using TVH or DVBV when you could use the HDHomeRun tuners directly in Emby?

That's a good question.  I'm familiar with DVBViewer from years ago as I used to have a DVB-S2 PCIe tuner for my PC.  I've just actually ordered a SAT>IP DVB-S2 server, which will require a software solution to connect to Emby (I assume) so was testing DVBViewer with the HDHOMERUN.  Also, I had been having some issues with using a HDMI modulator (on another thread) and wondered if going via DVBViewer would make any difference.

One note to make - DVBViewer (notwithstanding that it doesn't seem to support parsing of Dvb subtitles to Emby) is incredibly simple to set up and requires no channel logos or EPG in Emby as these are carried over from DVBViewer directly.
