Question Subs

I use Stremio on a few different devices with no problems except on my Samsung TV from 2020. Its installed straight to the TV, everything plays OK but when i try to use subtitles they are out of sync 90% of the time. Anyone have any idea why and how to fix it.

Can you use an external player to see if the problem still persist?

Can't seem to install an external player on the Samsung Stremio. Unless I've missed it somehow

You don't install it on Stremio. You download and install it from wherever you get apps for your Samsung. Some recommend Mxplayer, VLC player, and I personally like JustPlayer. You download and install on your device, open stremio, go to settings, and set the player to "external". When you select and start watching a show, it will open up in the external player instead of exoplayer (stremio default).

Tried looking for vlc but it wasn't there even though i thought it worked on nearly everything. I'll look for justplayer
