Hello everybody,
I use Plex for watching the TV, and I have an issue on my Shield TV, the captions are actived by default and it’s impossible to desactivate. I’m obliged to watch the show with the captions. I paid for the Plex Pass, and I have this issue, and I have the impression that Plex don’t want to fix it…
This issue is not present on my android phone with the same version app.
When I use an another app, like Live Channel from Google, I haven’t the issue.
Do you by chance have set Auto-select subtitle mode to Always selected?
Based on your post I suppose the subtitle is actually selectable and can be disabled/enabled. If it is actually part of the video itself (burned-in), you won’t be able to change its behavior.
