i posted another thread about trying to install 3.5.4 right above this one. If you can help me with that it would also be appreciated. I don’t recall how I managed to install that on my original Firestick 4K; but since posting, I’ve discovered that the problem exists on both installations: 3.5.4 on the original Firestick 4K, and 3.3.4 on the new Firestick 4K Max. The problem is even more extensive than I thought. Not only won’t it play the IDX/SUB files, it won’t display the SRT files I have on a couple of other video files. There doesn’t seem to be a pattern as to which files will have a problem and which won’t, other than perhaps these video files have that faulty subtitle built into the .mp4 files and not as a separate file. The correct files appear in the correct folders and can be accessed on my Mac Mini using VLC, but not on either Firestick. One quirk I noted was that just like the Firesticks, on the Mac when I use the quick-key to toggle through the subtitles only the faulty subtitle (which only shows a timecode) is given as an option, while when I use the drop-down subtitle menu on the Mac, both files are listed and I can select the proper, correct subtitle that works. I’ve noticed this before but lived with it.
If you tell me how to generate and post the logs, I’m happy to do it.
