Subtitles menu only on mobile iOS - not OSX

I have serviio pro 1.4.1. movies in "m4v" format, with embedded subtitles (not a separate .srt file) are rendered in Mediabrowser with no subtitle menu by the Flash player in OSX El Capitan. Instead, a "quality" menu replaces it, with "original" as the default, and there is no subtitle menu. on an iOS device, the film is rendered with the expected choice of available subtitles.

as i recall, this was not the case the last time i had occasion to watch my films from a remote location, which was many updates of Flash in the past - say, two years' worth. Is this an artifact of the flash viewer? Is there a way to craft a URL so that the server will serve the "mobile version?" I can watch my subtitled films, but it's quite a challenge to read them on my iPhone screen...
