I am having this issue on my LG C2 TV as well. When I have the subtitles on, I get a playback error: “Playback Error: Conversion Failed.

Watched an episode last night and ended with “Playback Error: Conversion Failed" at the end without even running the full ending credits. And we went to sleep. I hope they will fix this sooner.

However on LG everything works great, except this error happening probably since the last 2 or 3 official PMS update (Windows). I can confirm the subtitle trick works, but if I may add, …
