No subs when streaming with Beamer to AppleTV

[bosse]

When using MakeMKV I choose the subtitles I need and when playing the movie with VLC it works just fine. When I use Beamer to stream the movie to AppleTV I get no subs from the same movie file. Beamer is supposed to handle subs and when I convert the same movie with Handbrake, Beamer can show the subs. Why is it like this? Do I miss something when using MakeMKV? It?s so much faster then Handbrake so I really would like to use it.

When you convert with handbrake, are you writing it with the AppleTV profile? If so, you're converting the MKV to an MP4, which AppleTV understands directly.

Thank's for your reply!
With Beamer you can stream almost any type of movie to ATV - avi, mkv, mov etc. That's why it is such a nice piece of software, and the lagging is much less than with airplay.
I hope someone out there in cyberspace has a solution for missing subs or I will be forced to use Handbrake ( also a nice piece of software!)
