Perfect, that means there is too much of a delay between start of video and loading of subtitles.

I have an intentional 1 second delay because prior versions of KODI (think it even still applied to 16.1), there was an issue with if you load the subtitle track too fast, before the video started playing back, it would not load. It wasn't adequate enough to poll the isPlaying and then calling the setSubtitle. You had to wait at least 1 second after the isPlaying returned true to make the call, to ensure it loads.

Seems this needs relooking at.

Should be easy to fix.

you the man!
i look forward to the update

I've made the changes. Can you pull the latest testing (0.8.38, it should auto update if you are using testing repository). Disable the offline SRT just to ensure it is a real test.

I tested on a 18.1 and 17.1 on a different machine and the subtitles loaded.

great.
can you paste here the zip for the 0.3.38 please ? i'm using the stable repo and addon, and it seems like the testing v that on the first page here still on 0.3.37
