What kind of file are you speaking of exactly? Files with the .sub extension
may be MicroDVD files, which are simple text files with frames numbers, or
part of a VOBSUB file, but the other half, the index (.idx) is missing.

The complete console output would be useful to diagnose anything.

Probably not. This document is about DVB subtitles. There are not many
formats that can contain DVB subtitles. The nearest I can guess is VOBSUB,
which is mostly made of DVD subtitles. There is only one letter different,
but this is an entirely different format.
