Sony BDP-S470...does it support .SRT subtitles?

Hi again

I tried turning transcoding off and I saw "file doesn't exist" .

BDP version is M03.R.769

Usually I use standalone files for subtitles in SRT format and it works exelent. Above is ffmpg an information about file without subtitles builtin container - but now it doesn't matter, because BDP doesn't play raw mkv file.

Ok, so your player doesn't support MKV files natively and thus they have to be transcoded using one of the profiles. Embedded subtitles will be dropped at that point (although there is an option in Mezzmo to try and copy the subtitle stream to the new file - we can try that and see if the resulting file will show subtitles on the BDP).
