Roku subtitle display format

TLDR:

Roku subtitles kind look like crap ; don’t seem to have good rendering of SRT subtitles


I’m using mkv with embedded srt stream (tried external file too, same result) and subtitles always show up with a white text on a black box - which is not as nice as what shows up in the browser client (white text on clear background - and the font rendering is smoother).

Wondering if anyone can definitely say whether the roku app supports a way to show fonts more better-like.

Fwiw I tried converting my srt to ass and the server just transcoded them in when playing via roku, so that seemed liked a non-starter.

Cheers!
