I’m getting this error only when selecting an Transcoder temporary directory under Settings > Transcoder AND using subtitles.
When the Transcoder temporary directory is set the blank then the movie plays normally and subtitles work perfectly.
Issue is only present when selecting my RamDisk (R:) as the temp transcoding directory and using subtitles.
I’m not good at reading logs but it looks like the transcoder can’t seem to find the .srt file in the temp transcoding directory.
Works properly:
Settings > Transcoder: Transcoder temporary directory = R: (for my RamDisk)
Subtitles: None
Works properly:
Settings > Transcoder: Transcoder temporary directory = blank
Subtitles: Selected
Error: Conversion failed. The transcoder exited due to an error.
Settings > Transcoder: Transcoder temporary directory = R: (for my RamDisk)
Subtitles: Selected
