STRM files when played show no subtitles....but they are there

[Neureka 16]

Yeah, I use strm files too and there are embedded subs that show in Emby clients but they do not actually display on the screen despite being selected.

@Lukecan we get this fixed soon? I use strm files using nzbdav so we can have an infinite sized library without using any disk space.

Edit: It might be the subtitles work if you play and then back out, and then play a second time.

Yeah, on Apple TV embedded subtitles just straight up aren’t working in most cases, maybe not even at all.
