Re: Plex External Subtitles (.srt) files not displaying

I have found that the RokuMedia Player does not like font changes in the file. They are found between <  > brackets. Use an SRT Cleaner to remove.

Re: Plex External Subtitles (.srt) files not displaying

THANK YOU! This was driving me nuts!

I can understand the purpose of "on replay"...if you didn't catch what someone said and you hit the replay button to try again, the brief subtitles for the replayed content would certainly help you understand it the second time around. However, I do not understand why this would be the default! I've been trying to get subtitles to stay on so I don't need to have the TV turned up super loud and I've been so frustrated watching the subtitles disappear before my eyes just moments after appearing on the screen!

Thanks again!

Still the solution in 2023. It's silly that *On Replay" is the default subtitle behavior.
