Hello @chebyte,
Unfortunately AirPlay/AppleTV doesn't support adding subtitles so far. Will keep an Eye on it to be added.
Will leave this ticket open for the subtitles support for Roku which is in the way (because Roku does support it).
@guerrerocarlos , Check beamer app (http://beamer-app.com/) . It's a similar concept (though you need to download the torrent first). But it has 2 features that are being requested: Multiple AppleTVs and subtitles support. I guess the app is not open sourced but maybe the hint helps.
yeap I was using beamer before and subttiles works fine, but I love torrenttv

It might possible to get around this by add subtitle from ffmpeg? https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/HowToBurnSubtitlesIntoVideo

True, subtitles could be added with ffmpeg, but it requires first to define a couple of things:
Right now I'm focused on Roku and Chromecast support, plus multiple AppleTV support. Anybody who would like to help with these subtitle tasks is welcome.
Hmm... Where do you think this feature should add? peerflix? node-airplay2? or TorrenTV ?
I will see if it is possible to wrap ffmpeg on top of peerflix stream.
It probably should be added in peerflix, exactly before peerflix creates the local http server for streaming the movie, so the movie streamed already has the subtitles: https://github.com/mafintosh/peerflix/blob/master/index.js#L114
Or on top of torrent-stream so the output movie already has them.
Hi,i'm a noob, but i think that this corresponds to what you are searching for, doesn't it ? (Integrated solution associating peerflix and ffmpeg) https://gist.github.com/velsa/9764600
Also, this guy is speaking about a way to transcode from peerflix : https://github.com/mafintosh/peerflix/issues/45

Do subs work on Chromecast? Or nowhere currently...?
Hello @pepijn809 nowhere currently, based on devices capabilities probably will be added in this order:
Being the AppleTV the less likely to get them for the moment.
Just checked your chromecast-js implementation at https://github.com/guerrerocarlos/chromecast-js. Hope it gets implemented with VTT subtitles in TorrenTV ! :+1:
Maybe an SRT to VTT converter like https://github.com/jasonrojas/node-captions would help, too!
Subtitles work great in the new pre-release :+1:
Would be awesome if there was an auto download, maybe with https://github.com/aetheon/node-opensubtitles-client . The subtitles search works by hashing the file size with the first and last chunks of the file. Do you think it's possible to get the first / last chunks + the files size from the torrent file ?
Yes, it could be achieved by asking for those pieces of the file from the torrent swarm at the beginning of the download, sounds promising...
Thanks for the link @mderazon, will look into it.
