Hi,
I am observing a very strange behavior with my SRT-subtitles, that subtitles are not found
* The issue started about 2 months ago using the nightly builds of Kodi 18
* As I was assuming a temporary issue in the nightlies I moved back to Kodi 17, where there was no issue
* Yesterday, I installed Kodi 18 nightly again, and the issue is still here
* Log-Files don’t show any Error, Warning or Debug-info
* Going to ‘Video’s, and selecting the movie from the respective source, displays subtitles correctly
* Starting the Movie via ‘Movies’ or ‘TV-Shows’ does not show subtitles
When starting the movie via Video/Sources I see entries like these in the log, but there is nothing if started via ‘Movies’ or TV-Shows’

I am using Kodi 18 on a Ubuntu16.04-machine, following the setup from ‘Intel VAAPI howto with Krypton v17 based on Ubuntu 16.04 server’.
