Hello, will there be a fix on this issue?

VLCKit always try to display Chinese with PingFang-TC instead of PingFang-SC for simplified Chinese and PingFang-TC for traditional Chinese.

Also Helvetica(the default font on macOS and iOS), but in a different way.

On macOS, I can manually choose other fonts such as STHeitiSC(黑体-简), STSong(宋体-简) to bypass this issue.

On iOS, I have tried all choosable fonts(way less than macOS) but all of them have similar issue.

I can provide more examples: Save as test.srt with UTF-8:

1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:10,000
|全|远|杀|虑|杂|稳|

The first character 全 is just for simple comparison of displayable character.

PingFang-TC(苹方-繁) PingFang-SC(苹方-简) Helvetica

Spotting at 全，it seems that all problematic fonts are displayed similar to PingFang-TC. But problematic characters on Helvetica is different to PingFang, I don't know why.

However, all these fonts have no issue in TextEdit.app:

PingFang-TC(苹方-繁) PingFang-SC(苹方-简) Helvetica
