VLC Remote - VLC cannot autodetect Subtitle.

VLC Remote - VLC cannot autodetect Subtitle.

I got many MKV movie file with separate SRT subtitle file (with same file name).

I put each pair of MKV & SRT file in a separate folder.

When I run the MKV file directly in VLC, VLC can detect the subtitle file.

But when I use VLC Remote to play the same MKV file, VLC cannot autodetect the subtitle file. I need to use my mouse to manually add the subtitle.

Is it a bug in VLC or in VLC-Remote?

Any fix for this problem?

(it's a VLC problem when using the http interface)

It would be just a workaround but it would be great if you implement possibility to load external subtitles. Then after playing movie user could browse again through files and add subtitles which he wants.

sadly that isn't supported by the http interface
(or if it is - I don't know about it!)
