Hi there

 

You cannot use .srt files via DLNA.  You will need to install a DLNA Media Server such as Twonky.

 

See:

Search/post on the WD forums for more information:

Mux your srt subs quickly into MKV file using MKVToolnix. You will be able to change subtitles using remote control playing content via DLNA.
