Embedded Closed Captions Not on my Roku

I think this a Roku issue but I'm not an expert on Closed Captions (cc).

When I download an mp4 with embedded cc and play it an app on my computer the cc shows up as expected.

When I watch the mp4 on my Plex server through my Roku the cc doesn't show. I've checked the setting on my Roku but the screen is telling me that there is now cc available.

Does someone know how to fix this?
 
Plex currently only supports the cc tag for movies. Check the file properties with Mediainfo, check at the bottom for subtitles.

Plex does support srt so I would just change over to use that.
Code:

Also, there are applications out there that you can use to extract the current subtitles you have to put them in srt.
 
Still won't help if youn want to use plex's specific cc tag support. It's currently only supported for movies, srt or not.

Extracted to an srt, Plex would simply recognize it as a standard subtitle track.
