    Hi All,

    I've just received my zidoo z9x few days ago, and the experience is great so far except the subtitles part.
    1st problem:
    Arabic letters are not attached with integrate s_text subs "mainly found in web-dl content", and yes i've tried all sort of encoding methods and fonts.
    No such issue with PGS and External .srt.

    2nd problem:
    This time it's with the external srt subtitles, zidoo doesn't not show punctuation marks and symbols in their correct place.

    That second problem is a new one, but at least the Arabic is readable. The first issue I've seen lots of times for right to left languages. In the mean time you could extract the subtitles to an SRT file or just find one online.

    Yeah i'm aware of the above solution but since i'm with a large library i prefer a proper fix.
