I downloaded both files and put them in my Videos directory, ran
mythfrontend and scanned for changes.
Start playback and there is an option in the menu for Subtitles->Text
subtitles and they appear to work as expected (english subtitles for
what I assume is Bengali audio).
A few lines from the logs (mythfrontend -v vbi):

in file '/media/mark/4T_Media/Videos/Lion.srt'
While I'm running master, I don't think anything has changed with .srt
subtitles for some time and I don't recall any external library
dependencies - but I would check the files are in the same directory
and have the same permissions.

Mark
