Mediatomb and Subtitles

**Spacecowboy2005** · January 20th, 2010

Hi i've looked at serveral post all over the net but still can't get subtitles (.str files) to bind with the stream on mediatomb.

Mediatomb works fine with out the subtitle transcoding profile, but when added and mediatomb is restarted using sudo /etc/init.d/mediatomb restart I get the response "Fail" and Mediatomb will not start. If I change <transcoding enabled="yes"> to "no" then mediatomb works fine

Below is my config.xml
