Arabic Subtitle Display Problems In Plex

Server Version#: Android Mi Box Version 9
Player Version#: 8.20.0

Hi Plex Support,
I have Plex on an Android TV Box (Mi Box); I have a problem in displaying the Arabic subtitle in movies as follows:

  1. Punctuation for RTL languages is put at the wrong end

.” , “-” “!

The quotes in the Arabic language are from right to left … and not from left to right / for example,

  • The point “.” In subtitle, the plex app appears at the beginning of the line … it is supposed to be in the last line
  • Likewise “-” it appears at the end of the line … it is supposed to be in the first line.
  • Likewise “!” it appears at the first of the line … it is supposed to be in the last line.

  1. The subtitle formatting and styling is not working; if the line of the subtitle is colored or bold or italic format in the subtitle file it displays in white and normal style without coloring and styling lines.

Considering that;

  • On other Mi Box video apps it works fine for both punctuation and subtitle formatting and styling.

  • This issue is not appearing in Plex installed on smart TV (Samsung, LG, PC)

Appreciate your kind support to help me in fixing this annoying issue.
Thanks,
Mamdouh
