Missing subtitle when using chromecast.

Hi,

Great app!

I'm trying to stream a video that has a separate srt file, but the subtitle is not displayed on the TV.
I read something that chromecast do not support separate srt file, so I embeded it into the mkv file using MKVToolNix, but that didn't help either.
Then I found this article about subtitle and FFmpeg?
https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/HowToBurnSubtitlesIntoVideo
Is it possible in some way to add something to the transcoding settings in subsonic to burn text subtitles to the mkv files_

Thanks.

Hi

transcoding settings are defined in Subsonic, not AVSub.

I'm sure someone on one of the other Subsonic forums has done this already - take a look

Cheers
