Subtitles background transparency issue. #6

Subtitles background doesn't get affected by transparency slider. A black background is always visible.

Thank you for reporting the issue. It seem like an windows update has broken up default subtitles support making it that any change in Accessibility -> Captions disables the default subtitles functionality and replaces it with the defaults configured in the Default theme which has hardcoded values for text and background that cannot be overridden to defaults. According to the reported issue SettingsUI team is looking into the issue. Meanwhile possible workarounds are using the windows settings to set color/background/font, etc instead of the internal player settings or manually removing the overridden registry keys with powershell to get to initial state (preferably with backing up the registry before running the command)

Remove-Item -Path Registry::HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ClosedCaptioning

Or a new correct default theme can be generated with the following powershell script

New-Item -Path Registry::HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ClosedCaptioning\Theme -Name '{2759ef05-cb91-46f3-a7d0-7ad474a94c34}' -Force
