please fullfill all template parts, as it is it is not enough to investigate since to me arabic subtitle works most important also provide a way to reproduce the problem, so a sample video or another way
This error occurs on Kodi 21.0 “Omega” RC1 running on a Sony TV (Android TV). I’ve attached a sample video and subtitles . When you choose any external subtitle, initially I thought it was happening only with Arabic/Farsi subtitles. However, I noticed that it occurs even when I choose English subtitles. Interestingly, when I embedded the SRT file using mkvtoolnix into the MKV file, Kodi plays the file correctly. The link to file is:

i also tried on Android 64 and Windows and works as expected since you havent provide the debug log there is nothing more to do
Here is the log file for your reference.

if it is not a corrupted video file, imo could be related to samba cache but im not expert on this on kodi 21 Settings->Services->SMB try change the Chunk size to some higher number
Have seen reports like this and seems SMB related in that client is using SMBv1 with chunk size 128 when v1 only supports up to 64. Best fix is to migrate to SMBv3 but changing chunk size to 64 kb in settings has been reported to work.
Thank you for your response and the information provided. However, these errors do not cause the player to exit. Instead, Kodi exits when I select the .srt file. I am able to play the video from the SMB without any issues when not using external subtitles. The error related to this issue is below, and it seems to be associated with ‘CMediaCodec’.”:
