Someone please advise.

sub is local and named

“House - 4x13 - No More Mr. Nice Guy.eng(2008).forced.srt”

Movie is online/Streaming from the web/ in Plex and called:
“House - 4x13 - No More Mr. Nice Guy.m4v”

I get the ‘Unable to Upload subtitle file’ Message when I try to Upload the LocaL .SRT file?

Does anyone know what’s causing the message?

You can only upload subtitles to your own server.

sorry, mate… Don’t know what that means. I am logged in as the Admin. I am remote from the server - which, of course contains the mkv file.
I have a corrected SRT and try to upload it. It fails ‘Unable…’ etc. - in firefox.

It appears to work in Chrome, however.

Thanks for the post.
