External subtitles not working on Xbox One VLC

Dear Team,

I've recently experiencing this issue: external subtitles are not recognized by VLC for Xbox One. I have the latest update installed.

Environment details:

  • Xbox One
  • Wired connection
  • all content on Synology DS216j upnp share
  • formats used: h.264, mkv, srt, sub
  • tried with different subtitle character encoding.
  • always renaming subtitles to the exact same name as the video file

At this point i'm not quite sure, but as i remember this feature has worked in the past.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
