I'm looking DLNA Media Server with the features above:

Support most extended video formats.
Reproduce external subtitles in client side.
Open source or freeware software.

USE CASE:

DLNA Media server installed and running on my PC.
In my PC, I have /home/myprofile/videos directory where I store all my video files.
- For example, game.of.thrones.s09.e06.mpg and game.of.thrones.s09.e06.srt
Turn on my Smart-TV, connect to my DLNA Media Server (installed on my PC)
Play game.of.thrones.s09.e06.mpg file and see the subtitles overlapped.

Finally, my question: Is there some DLNA Media server that provides that use case?.

Thank you.
