New Updated Web Browser Video Subtitles Disappears

[alebabai]

After updating to the latest web browser with new UI, closed caption subtitles on ALL websites video including Youtube.com disappears every 2-3mins. Video continues to play without subs and subs will re-appear if I move the magic remote but disappears again after 3mins.

Same exact issue here. This is incredibly frustrating. Literally signed up just now to post this.

I have same issue, did lots of tests and found that this is some kind of screen saver in new browser, not only subtitles, but if you watch a video not in full screen, browser hides all html elements except the video after 2 minutes. I could not find any fix yet, and there is nowhere to disable screen saver for browser to fix this, I hope LG fixes this soon because I can not watch any movies anymore without subtitles.

Its easy for LG to fix it, just disable screen saver when browser is playing video.

Or literally just undo what you did last.

Is there any method to downgrade browser?

I found something that helps, reset TV to factory settings, before that write down your region and backup programs to usb, then after restoring, set region and restore programs, new browser is gone, but every time you run browser it  asks for update and you have to press launch. I found it in a thread and also users suggested to watch movies for free in watchsomuch.tv which was a great site and is fully compatible with WebOS browser. If pay you can watch outstanding 4K qualities on LG OLED

I have lg oled cx and after updating I am still having the same issue. Even worse unlike the browser update which could be easily downgraded web os update which can't be downgraded made this issue even worse. I m practically firced to use inferior new version of web os.
