According to the documentation there should be the possibility to change size on subtitles on Apple TV, but I’m missing that option. SRT subtitles are way to large. Also, it would be nice to be able to move them down into the black bar, for when you’re watching a scope film on a 16:9 screen.

There’s no subtitle size option… just an option for the vertical position of the subtitles (3 options: top/middle/bottom)

Exit Plex and navigate to Settings → Accessibility → Subtitles and Captioning. Choose or create your own subtitle style there and it will be applied to any text-based subtitles in your Plex videos.
