Subtitles Sub-Folder - Cfir - 2025-01-08

Hey,
In my media folder (of TV shows for example), I have a sub-folder named "Subs".
When I try to watch an episode on my TV, it won't recognize the subtitles.

A couple of details that might be related:
The subtitles are named after the episode (i.e. "episode_name.mkv", "episode_name.srt").
I don't want to place the subtitles on the same folder of the media itself.

I would like to get your help,
thanks!

Subtitles cannot be in a subfolder. They must be in the same folder as the movie with a matching name.
