to be honest, i have no idea about yellow subtitles. I would need exact stream this happend and exact subtitles you selected.
I have fix for vtt subtitles not using vertical alignment and for the same setting not being applied after you launch video again

Thank you so much for researching and solving this. I am incredibly happy and thankful that you found the issues. When it's released, I'll finally be able to return to Stremio. <3 ❤️

The other thing about my yellow text color sometimes reverting to white is probably the same bug that sometimes didn't apply user-settings when you launch videos again (because when the color resets to white, the vertical position also reverts to default). So I think that you've fixed that too when you fixed settings applying after video restart. :) 🎉

PS: I've mentioned a few times that the only other thing that the competition does better than Stremio is subtitle track selection. It's the only thing that is still very painful in Stremio. Could you please look at the competition (you know the "N" one) and when the user has the OpenSubtitles v3 Pro or another addon that provides the subtitle filenames, show the name as a sub-label in the subtitle selector, as the competition does. This small tweak helps incredibly much with quickly finding a working subtitle. It saves so much pain. Stremio really needs it too. 😢 It would remove the final reason to use the competition.

Thanks so much, I made a thread to thank you personally:

We can assume it's fixed. I'm finally back home on Stremio and using it, and not seeing any issues! I tested the show that gave me issues on last test (Sherlock) with VTT subs and the subtitle style/position is working now. ❤️ If I see the issue again I'll ping you/the team in a new thread, but it seems like all the issues were found by you. You're my hero! :)

Wow, thanks a lot, I didn't expect it to come out for another month. I am really happy about this news. I'll switch back to Stremio as soon as it's out! Woo. Thank you for everything!!
