The problem is not that the subtitles do not work or that I did not turn them on.
The subtitles do work when I turn them on.
The problem is with the Roku feature that shows the captions when the replay button on the Roku remote is used. This feature no longer works.
The feature used to work as follow: Press the replay button and the video goes back 20 seconds, turns on the captions/subtitles and plays the video with subtitles. The subtitles only remain for 20 seconds and automatically turn off. That feature no longer works on Netflix. It does work when watching the Roku Channel.
Thanks for the detailed info, keneasley!
