I just want a button that rewinds 10-15s, turns on subtitles, and then turns them off when it catches up again. It's a pattern I do manually with some regularity.
I suppose with Jellyfin/OSS, this is something I could implement myself if I was so inclined...
Most of the apps on Roku have a 10 second rewind and you can set subtitles/CC to be on resume which means they only stick around for about 10 seconds or so.
A bunch of platforms have this. I think all Roku apps support this and I noticed on Apple+ on Chromecast I think.
My Roku used to do this, but sadly my NVIDIA shield doesn't.
Omg yes same
Why not leave the subs on all the time?
Because it covers some of the screen and is distracting? I actually prefer subtitled anime, but not if it's a language I understand.
I can't have full-time subs, I can't read and pay attention to the show at the same time, even though I can read fast. I just impulsively read the subtitle over again.
Anime and gaming trained me just for this
