Hi all
I use the latest version of kodi on a z alpha formuler
It's been 4-5 days i try to load local subs stored on my computer
the .txt file has the same name of the movie file (mkv)
Ex
movie.mkv
movie.srt
i also tried
movie.french.srt and movie.french.forced.srt
each time i can't find the txt file in the location of the movie but kodi detect it as unknown but is unable to load and read them
i tried all subtitles option it worked but couldn't find the subs in french for the movie i watched...
Many thanks in advance for your kind help
Regards
Marsu

I use Opensubtitles, and once set up it has worked perfectly. I also name my subtitles as follows, folder name = "Movie Name", in that folder you have, movie file = "Movie Name", and subtitle name = "Movie Name".language.srt.
Never had any issues with subtitles when doing it this way.

So
I checked opensubtitles setings ok but kodi f..er can't download them
I retried tagging like this movie name.mkv, movie name.French.srt folder name = movie name : i does not work
I tried custom subs directory : kodi can't see .srt files tagged as said above (movie name.French.srt) = it failed
So if someone couldgive a hand it will be very appreciated ;-)

Kodi needs to have write access to your video folder by default in order to create the .srt files.
If that is a network location, double-check its access privileges.
If your media files are on a local attached drive, then Android is probably being a nuisance.
Do you have a single folder assigned for subtitle files?

I cannot find any action of you downloading a subtitle for a video in your log file.
Also restart Kodi when enabling debugging so that debugging start from the beginning.
