With mpv all subtitles work perfectly.
VLC works fine with embedded subtitles, but not with external ones. This has been an issue for 6 years https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc-android/-/issues/1903 and no one has addressed it. It's not jellyfin's fault. This issue specifically is what needs to be fixed: https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc-android/-/issues/1904
MX Player is a bit weird: it doesn't show subtitles when using HW decoding. If you switch to SW or HW+ it loads the subtitles (both embedded and external) and they will continue to work, even if you switch back to HW. This might be addressable by adding some MX Player specific code, but it should really just be fixed by the developers of MX Player.
ExoPlayer is slowly adding support for ASS subtitles (google/ExoPlayer#8435) - in the next update of jellyfin-android there will be a checkbox to enable ASS support in ExoPlayer even though it is incomplete and only shows basic text.
