Hello, I have a little problem. I just create a server over a cloud server. All my movies and shows are in French and English. For me every movies or shows are in french by default, but for my parents or brother its in English first even after change the option to pu French as preferred audio. I don’t know what to do ☹

Thank you

> The bug has been found. The fix is now in the release pipeline and should find its way into one of the next server releases. Until then, possible workarounds are: downgrade to plex server 1.16 , set the language prefs again, then upgrade again. edit the plex database directly as shown in here: [How-to Guide: Setting default language for audio track & subtitles on managed accounts (e.g. Guest)](https://forums.plex.tv/t/how-to-guide-setting-default-language-for-audio-track-subtitles-on-managed-accounts-e-g-guest/187383/1)

After the server update, its still not working for my Friends that access to the server, they still have English language first instead of French. And when the change it to French, the subtitles go on automatically. Its like this for all streaming device.

Before I didn’t have this problem.  
What I can do?

Thank you

Please peruse the release notes. The release that was just set to “public” has been built before the fix has been made.
