what is happening here

CTT Windoes Utility -> Tweaks -> Remove Microsoft Edge

Removed edge when I got my new computer about a year ago and haven’t seen it since.

If it’s a Google TV you can always install a custom launcher and even disable the stock launcher via ADB and never be bothered by any of the curated bullshit again

My recommendation is FLauncher

You are right, it’s part of the subtitles. Not sure why I did not think of that.

Also thanks for recommending mkvtool, never heard of it until now which is great because when I play LOTR from a flash drive on my TV, it defaults to Italian language.
