Not only that, but now all apps have to have remove any Screensaver that kept the screen active on that app. For instance, Plex now doesn't have a Screensaver so if you are listening to music and pause it too long, you lose all progress on that Playlist and it starts all over again. Big bummer that is making me question getting a new Roku later this year.
When it comes to Plex and Roku, I'd like them to work out whatever issue it is that makes it a toss-up whether or not movie subtitles will show up. They work fine on any other device I watch through.
I got around that by hardcoding foreign subs into mp4's.
