I just found out this discussion, most likely the issues in this topic are related to this problem:
As I’ve stated in that topic, whenever subtitles are enabled, playback either fails instantly, or it just stops after a couple of minutes.
I still don’t know whether it’s normal that the subtitle track gets “Direct-Stream” while Video and Audio are Direct-Play.
Also my files just have at most 4 or 5 subtitle tracks, so in my case it doesn’t look like it’s related to how many tracks are available in mkv.
I also notice this happens on LG TVs, (Direct Play video/audio + Direct-Stream subtitles), except there’s no error in playback, files seem to play fine.
