Added .vtt subtitle support in a web browser for media files - now web viewing users can have English subtitles whilst watching media. Only English subtitles at this time.

Dependant upon the DLNA client (Smart TV), .srt subtitles can be viewed across the network whilst watching media locally via dlna.
Scraper now pulls down .srt subtitles for media if there is no present .srt file at 5am scan as well as movie art, movie synopsis, IMDB rating and Rotten Tomato score.

All .srt files and .vtt files are named the same as the media file.

mkv-2-mp4 conversion now promotes not just the mkv file but also the .srt subtitle file from transmission directories and re-encode mkv to mp4 and also convert .srt to .vtt subtitles as well.

Mkv-Watcher now logs less but more relevant info into the system log for the systemd service.
Added screen aspect ratio for viewing media. this is remembered by the web browser
Fixed upload file button with a progress bar popup when adding a new media file

You can download / upgrade by running the following on the Raspberry Pi (either SSH into the Pi or on the actual Pi) :-
