Server Version#: 1.32.0.6918  
Player Version#: Android 9.20.1.890

So forced subtitles work just fine when streaming locally (with or without transcoding, doesn’t matter) but refuse to show up at all when streaming remotely. I have absolutely no idea why, please help. (Manually selecting regular subtitles works fine, even remotely)
