Subtitles not loading in Dropbox Replay

I can't add subtitles to a video file. It says "Failed to add subtitles. There is some error in the selected file". Format .srt, Unicode UTF-8 encoding.

    Hey Fractal Tree - sorry to jump in here, but I just wanted to mention that this should be resolved now.

     

    Can you check and let us know if you're still having issues?

Hi valer2021 - sorry to hear about this.

 

Could you clear your browser's cache and/or try another browser and let us know if you get the same results?

 

If you do, I'd appreciate a screenshot too.

I deleted cookies and nothing changed.

 

There's really not much to show in a screenshot. The SRT is selected but the subtitles are not visible when the video plays.

    I see, thanks for the additional information and the screenshot too valer2021 - did you just clear the cookies from your browser or did you try another browser as well? 

     

    Does this happen for all files, some or only one in particular?

    So, it seems that only the subtitles contained in the same folder as the video work.

    The one that wasn't working was in my computer.
