I also have this, with the exact same Stingray, tvOS and Jellyfin versions. It seems to happen when selecting anything in the player overlay menus (like playback quality). It's like something breaks and it zooms out the player view to the top left corner of the screen and just leaves a blue background

I am facing exactly the same issue. Since there's no other option (I think?) to select a subtitle file, this is keeping me from using Stingray..
