i did it like this:

	m.player.SetContentList([{
	  streamFormat:   m.container
	  stream: { url: url }
	  PlayStart: 0
	  FullHD: True
	  SubtitleConfig: { TrackName: m.container+"/3" }
	  ShowSubtitle: 1	  
	}])

I actually tried both ways, the documentation states it should be in SubtitleConfig, but the error still happens either way. The ShowSubtitle is a flag to force the closed captions to show by default instead of the user telling it to with the remote. I don't want it on by default but I do need the capability as the channel I am working on is for elders.

you can activate subtitles just get the position the movie is at, set the metadata while movie is playing to showsubtitles and then do a .play() again. If you did it right movie will start playing at the position it was with subtitles on, you can put subtitles off the same way...
