Ive got a .avi movie which will play fine using VLC player but when I put it on a memory stick and play it through the television it plays the video track fine but won't show the subtitles. There's Is a way to toggle the audio tracks via the tv but apparantly not the subtitle track unless viewing on a computer.
Someone told me I may have to update the firmware on the telly from samsung via USB??? Or can I change something before I transfer it to USB?
Muchos gracias

Subtitles are on a different file, have you copied that one to the stick and can the tv read it? "srt" I think. Just a thot.

And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,

As wunfellaff said, they're on a different file. I'd be surprised if your telly would play them. There's a program called TMPGenc that has an option to hard burn subtitles, which essentially makes them part of the video.
