@Dhiraj - I connected my pendrive to the 3.0 port and it detects.
1. It showed all the files and played all formats - mkv, mp4. It also supports HEVC encoded files too.
2. It doesn't support high bitrate files, I tried playing a 7GB video file and it just loads. Also noticed while playing the media I can see the data streaming and being played parallelly. Also if the STB has no access to internet then media playback isn't possible on STB. So it's kind of like Plex where it uploads data to remote server and then streams the data, have to test it out more.
3. Also when you eject, add more files to the usb, the STB doesn't detect the new files unless you restart the STB.

Can it display subtitles along with the video?

If the subtitles are in the video itself then obviously yes.
But if you are attaching an external subtitle file then there is no option in the STB to enable that file.

I downloaded a subtitle file, enabled it in the VLC Media Player on my PC and played the movie.
But the same movie when I copied to my pendrive and tried playing on the STB, it did not display the subtitles.

If anyone knows how to display external subtitles on the STB, please post here.

How to toggle subtitles on-off? I. E. If they are in the video file or do they have to be hard coded

 

[ap99]

There is no option of toggling the subtitles on or off. They must be hard coded in order to be seen on the STB.

It should. Since then I managed to sideload VLC and Kodi so no issues faced like before.
