Server Version#: 1.28.2.6151 Player Version#: android 9.8.2.35221 I’ve been recently having weird issue where in plex client GUI is showing that I have external SRT subtitles selected but subtitles are not shown at all. If I select some other subtitle from subtitles menu in the player, subtitles …

Same issue here. Same specs, android 9.9 version, server 1.29.0.6219. Previous version 1.28.2.6106 didnt have this. Going to roll back (I only update maybe once a month)

Based on this I did rollback to 1.28.2.6106-44a5bbd28 - same issue. Also tried rollback to 1.28.0 - still same issue Did the rollback solve the issue for you?

I just tried clearing all data / cache / defaults from my android client application and reinstalled. No change by this either Guess I’ll need to look if I can find changelogs for android cli…

I did rollback to 9.7.0.34811-e3f8b122 and 9.6.3.34515-1b12302f both of then have the same issue.

This happens when I’m starting to play the file with external .srt subtitle S…

I will give it a try - This doesnt only affect SRT as you describe - PGS subs are affected too.

I’m still running 1.28.0.5999, and have the same issue.

Ok, need to double check then too. Also today I noticed this issue also happening with video with internal srt subtitles… So happens with internal and external srt subtitles too @Deepfriedbutter @nielsvdp @Dystaxia are you by any chance encountering this issue with 4K HDR material? Going thru a bit…
