Player Version#: 9.13.1.37459 (Nvidia Shield TV)

Can you make bigger font for subtitle, please?

My Setting in plex is,  
Video: Burn subtitles - Automatic  
Subtitles: Subtitle size - Huge

Although I use huge settings for subtitles, the subtitles are small, I can barely see the subtitle. Can you change this?  
Thank you in advance.

When i set, Video: Burn subtitles - Always, i get bigger subtitles, but…

Why is the size of external and internal subtitles different in Plex?  
External and internal subtitles are SRT.  
Is there any way I can make all the subtitles the same size in Plex?

And HEVC all time buffering, when set Video: Burn subtitles - Always.

Are you watching HDR videos? In that case, it could be the same issue I’m suffering from where subtitle styling just don’t work on HDR videos.

I’ve double checked that the video isn’t transcoding and that it’s a text based subtitle (srt) with no color styling in the subtitle itself. I’ve even checked “override included subtitle styling” for good measure. Whatever I do, the text is eye searingly white.

Is it possible to get help from support on this forum or not.  
I pay Plex Pass and never get help from Plex.  
Why i payed Plex pass?

The size of subtitles on android boxes has been a problem for years and no one is fixing it.  
When will make bigger fonts for the subtitles?  
I have problem with small subtitle on Nvidia Shield TV and Amazon Firestick 4k.  
My setting is: Video: Burn subtitles - Automatic, Subtitles: Subtitle size - Huge
