Roku caption mode

I know Roku set a rule where you have to have caption mode enabled to see subtitles in Emby. But I prefer to have Emby burn the subtitle into the video

but even if I disable caption mode in Emby every time I log back into Emby it re enables caption mode... is there a way to prevent this and just have Emby burn the  subtitle in>

I don't really know to me it just looks better then the way Roku displays them

 

Every subtitle I let play with caption mode turned on seems to have a black background and white text

 

when I play them with vlc I can clearly see it's supposed to be displayed yellow with a total different font... Roku's way works I just want to see it the way it was intended just personal preference 

so I usually turn off caption and set it to burn in any and all selected subtitle

 

So can caption be permanently disabled in Emby and burn in be set

No, I'm afraid there is no way to make the system prefer the burn-in process.

 

However, you may be able to change your caption look on the Roku in the device settings...

I don't think you can tell Roku to just feed  subtitle through without changing formatting color/font etc of the subtitle... even though it says "defined by content"

but that would be sweet

No, you cannot keep the internal formatting but you may be able to change the way it is displayed in the Roku player.
