Additional context

According to @nielsvanvelzen ExoPlayer don't support ASS styling, I'd like to say EMBY plays ASS with styling no problem on their ExoPlayer. So there might be a confusion here.

You're right, its definitely server side as it can't play karaoke opening songs.

On another note I can definitively and objectively say, Jellyfin now has the superior client for android after 2.2.0 update where you enabled MPV external player with resume feature. Great job guys!

Please don't make duplicate issues.

You told me to

Please create an issue with them if you want this fixed.

So i created an issue.

I meant with the ExoPlayer developers.

Gotcha, no way around it? Seems weird emby has it enabled.

They might bake in the subtitles serverside or use a different player frontend. I'm not sure, never used that product.
