 Right now I have many files that either have internal subtitles (please
 also see #8496), or have external subtitles that MediaPlayer is already
 able to detect and list for selection.

 Since the vast majority of my videos (and probably for many people) only
 have a single subtitle available (translating the video language into
 their own native language), it would be extremely handy to have
 MediaPlayer have at least the option to automatically select that subtitle
 when the video begins playing.

 Currently I have to navigate the menu to enable the subtitle and then
 restart the video to see the subtitles I've already missed. :(
