Describe the bug
Stumbled on an issues which results in near all my subtitles not working or appearing on the videos anymore even tho they show up on the subtitle selection. They worked in the version 10.5.0 but been on 10.5.3v for a bit and only a small amount of shows now result in subs being shown. Plus some subs are from the same providers but result in some working and other not.

For troubleshooting, hit F12 to bring up the browser debugger and go to Console, when you start playing a video with subs, are there any console errors popping up?

Let's verify proper operation with of the server. Go to your User Profile > Subtitles > Burn Subtitles and change it to ALL. This will remove the client aspect and verify the backend is properly operating.

But just did the Burn subtitles which seemed to of worked, also is there a way to get the server to go thought all subs and burn them, so that they can be played Direct Stream is that not possible?

Not yet. You could use something like tdarr but i find burning in subs to be a nasty solution.

@JustAMan I'm seeing lots of red here D:

Some are expected, and some others are not.
From the first glance it looks like incompatible version of us calling into Octopus and what version of Octopus is bundled.

I would have to look closer.

Okay, I've checked portable x64 package and it's fine.
Can you give me the link you used to install JF?

I've checked that, too, and it should be fine.
Please clear the cache and retry, it's definitely your browser getting old subtitles-octopus-worker.js from somewhere, and that somewhere is probably browser cache.

Definitely clear the cache, this seems to have the same root cause and probably the same "fix" (clearing cache): https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/2856

So I'm going to close this issue as it's fixed locally.
Meanwhile I hope that this https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/pull/2864 would eliminate the need for later cache cleanups.
