Wow I was literally just making this issue about both the scaling and the fact that subtitle elevation makes them disappear above the PiP window.

I hadn't really noticed the elevation issue since I hardly use it, so I think you can still create that issue. Seems that the default font size(normal) for subtitles also got larger in in the beta version. I currently use 20sp in the beta version which seems to match the previous stable versions.
