If you are having problems with subtitles while viewing with Plex then you would be better off on their forum as the apps (server & client) do all the work (encoding/decoding etc) not webOS itself.
It's nothing to do with the app. He is trying to direct play in LG using DLNA. the external srt file is not being recognized by the TV. He needs to convert to ASCII. The question is can LG fix it so he doesn't have to convert lot of these SRT files to ASCII format for direct play in LG to work.
