So is it an external subtitle file or an embedded subtitle track in the
mkv? Your first post only talked about "subtitle track", but now you
mention a "subtitle file" which sounds like a separate one; embedded
fonts again sound like something meant for subtitle tracks in the main
file.

So behavior changed?

The incoming cleanup shouldn't affect the latest uploaded files.
