Yes, to display the subtitles you have to have the subtitles files in the same directory as that of your movie. Subtitles files are generally are in the format of .srv.

that is correct in case of divx files. its more of a recommended best practice as the limitations of same directory and same filename have gradually been removed with advances in firmware
current scenario:
for mkv
mkv is a container and nowadays the subtitles are in the mkv file itself.
so the pain of renaming and folder limitations are mostly taken care off.
divx files ( .divx /.avi containers)
there are .divx file containers as well which contain subs inside the container.
however u can point to an external sub file (different name, diferent directory) and click play then go to the movie file click play - this plays subs with the movie.
i have seen this in lg dvd drives as well which play divx...
