It is available for iOS and Android TV, but doesn't appear to work on Apple TV. It's possible that it might work on FireTV, but the FireOS is not standard Android, so it's possible it won't work. Tried with adding language code in file name, it does not work either. SRT, in the same folder as the movie is, with the same name. But they have specifically said they would not be writing a version for Roku, as the RokuOS is not compatible with the programming language they use. 17-11-2017 11:56 PM in TV Hello, Just purchsed a new smart tv, model UE32M5502 and it seems it does not load external subtitles when the movie is streamed via DLNA: plex, serviio.
