HTTP Stream and AUTOLOAD Subtitles from same link but with .srt at the end

[wincore]

Hello, can you add ability to automatical download subtitles if HTTP stream is:
http://localhost/movies/myMovie.mkv
then BS Player also try automaticaly load subtitles from:
http://localhost/movies/myMovie.srt
Is possible to implement this in next version?
Thank you.

This should work already, for local files, but you have to enter IP instead of localhost. We will add localhost also.

Hello, for local files is it a standard, but because BS Player cannot play files from FTP, then HTTP stream with autoload from remote subtitle file is a good option and feature I think. Then I can serve media files over own HTTP server with browser listing. It's easier workaround, than you decide to implement FTP/FTPS browsing in BS Player.

localhost - i originally mean any remote IP address / domain, sorry for misleading

So, I'm trying to implement this on the server side (Nexus Media Importer) because a lot of people have been asking for it.

When I send you:

http://127.0.0.1:34427/play/Tangled.mkv?id=61&ext=.mkv

You are sending me this:

POST /play/Tangled.mkv?id=61&ext=.srt HTTP/1.1
User-Agent: Dalvik/1.6.0 (Linux; U; Android 4.1.1; Nexus 7 Build/JRO03D)
Host: 127.0.0.1:34427
Connection: Keep-Alive
Accept-Encoding: gzip
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Length: 0

Would this normally be a GET? Are you expecting the URL back, or the actual .srt file? If the URL, can you give me an example format? (I'm looking for the key)

Thanks!

Don't know if you fixed this because of me, or fixed it before I mentioned it, but it's working! Thanks!

As long as it works now.

Hello, i discover, that competitive MX Player can open remote subtitles as i wish for BSplayer earlier.
It means, if MX Player open http://public.ip/movies/myMovie.mkv then it is trying to also open:

http://public.ip/movies/myMovie.srt
http://public.ip/movies/myMovie.ass
http://public.ip/movies/myMovie.smi
http://public.ip/movies/myMovie.sub
http://public.ip/movies/myMovie.txt
http://public.ip/movies/myMovie.ssa
http://public.ip/movies/myMovie.mpl
http://public.ip/movies/myMovie.psb

So, with MX Player i can watch remote movies even with subtitles.
With BSPlayer I can't.
Because I paid both, can you add support for this feature please?
I will be very appreciated.
Thank you very much and best wishes.
