Feature Request - Keyboard shortcut for toggling subtitles

Can a keyboard shortcut for toggling subtitles on/off while media is playing be added to the Plex for Windows desktop app?

Currently other versions of Plex have this as “S”, but it’s not listed as a keyboard shortcut for the desktop player.

Sometimes I like to turn on subtitles if I find it hard to understand what was said, and then turn them off again afterwards. This requires pausing, opening the settings, selecting subtitles, then choosing the language from the list, closing the settings, and then repeating the process when I wish to turn them off. A shortcut to simply toggle subtitles on/off would make this process much easier.

Small issue I know, but it would be of huge benefit to me and hopefully others. Thanks!

Hi, sorry I had posted this to the Plex Players forum first, and moved it after realising this would be a better fit. I’ll close this and add it as a comment to the thread you suggested.
