Description

To avoid the lack of fonts required for subtitles in the playback system, one way is to insert the font files into the video file, that is simple and effective.

So I suggest that add support to Matroska Attachments in ExoPlayer, make the player could get the required fonts form inside mkv file, if it exists.
