For some reason the subtitle parser fails to read it. Since you're still running 14.2 and we just release 15.2, chances are high the issue is already fixed. Please upgrade and report back.

Well it happened again so i did some digging. It appears that the issue was with the filename.
i got the .sub with .en.sub as as name and the .idx was without .en.idx
I removed the .en from the filename and it worked.
