It's official: Plex have so enshittified their web player that there is now no way to turn on subtitles.

So all the foreign language films I had bookmarked on Plex, I guess I'll be watching somewhere else. Great job!

#NowWatching Tai Chi Master (1993) on Fawesome instead

EDIT: looks like it may be just that film; e.g. Throne of Blood does have subs

Looks like it's just that film so far. Watched Throne of Blood yesterday and subs *are* available for that, but still not for Tai Chi Master.

They were a bit delayed but the FastStream browser extension recommended by @asj fixed that

@klu9 @asj (sorry, I can’t access original post) have you downloaded subs online to add manually? Plex is finicky with subs sometimes!Opensubtitles.org is a swell place

@klu9 @asj also, I need to rewatch Thai Chi Master now!

Once I sorted the subs issues, I had a great time watching Tai Chi Master!

Plex also has Wing Chun (1994), also by Yuen Woo-ping with Michelle Yeoh, another on my watch list
