Description

Stremio Platform

Samsung Native TV App

Describe the bug

The issue was reported a month ago, and a comment implied it would be fixed in the next update. The update has come and gone! Every time you start the app, the subtitles are set to "on." When will this issue be fixed? If I deactivate the subtitles, I don't want them to turn on EVERY TIME I start the app or start a new episode or movie!

To Reproduce

Start the app on your Samsung TV and the issue is there. Turn off the Subtitles then exit the app and start again boom subtitles back ON

Expected behavior

Off means OFF PERMANENTLY

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in the Samsung Native TV App: disable subtitles, exit, restart, and start another episode or movie. The issue names no source files or tests, so locate the app implementation and its subtitle-preference entry point first. Done means the disabled subtitle setting remains off across restarts and new playback.
