How do I Play Movie With Subtitles On My Sony Bravia From USB?(SOLVED)

Hello friends,
I mainly use my TV for gaming but when I thought of watching a HD movie on it I suffered from the same problem of not been able to play a movie with subtitle on my Sony Bravia TV. I search search the web but could cony find any easy solution.

So here is an easy trick that you can use to play subtitle file on sony bravia

NOTE: That .MKV is not supported and that the support of .srt files is not a support or guaranteed even with .AVI files for Sony TVs manufactured in 2012.
I successfully tested it with .MP4 file and .srt subtitle file and it work perfectly fine.

Steps:
  1. Download the movie form the internet say Iron Man 3 put it in a folder.
  2. Download the subtitle file for Iron man 3 and put it on the same folder .To find subtitle just Google it.
  3. Make sure that you saved the subtitle file with the same name as the movie file in the same folder with the extension .srt.
  4. Name the folder same as the movie (optional but it dont work try this)
  5. Plug in the usb. Start playing the movie file.
  6. Press the green button out of the group of four coloured buttons on your sony tv remote. If the green button doesnt work, try the Green/white button next the numeral '0'.
  7. And the Final step 

Hope this will help you out. Do let us know if this work for you? If any querry leave it in comment below? Share it with you friends and family and spread the world.
