DLNA streaming and subtitle support for Panasonic BDT-230 Blu ray Player

If your videos are MP4 or MKV format you can very simply merge the subtitle files into the main video.

I use MKV Merge , part of MKVtoolnix. The time to do this will only be measured in seconds, not minutes as there's no transcoding involved.

Harsha: We'll check the logs and report back via email. Also, please email us one your external subtitle SRT files. We'll check it here.

TimC: Thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks TimC. I tried merging with handbrake and it took forever. When I play the subtitle-merged file, I still cannot see it when streaming to my Panasonic Blu Ray player. I will try with MKVMerge and report back.

Thanks.

On another note, I have a question on bitstreaming files using Mezzmo. Let's assume I have a Blu ray rip / movie file on my computer running Mezzmo. I would be streaming the files to my Panasonic Blu-ray player (DMP-BDT230) and then on to my Yamaha RXV-475 AVR, to which my Sony TV is connected. I DO NOT want any audio processing to be done by Mezzmo OR my Blu ray player (which is already set to bit stream signals to my AVR). In other words, unless a file is transcoded, all video and audio info should be passed through to my AVR without any processing. Is this how Mezzmo works by default or something has to be enabled at the Mezzmo end to achieve this?

Thanks
