Hey, I’m using Jellyfin and AndroidTV as client.
Everything is usually working fine using direct play. But for a few files, when using subtitles, I will get the message “burning subtitles” and the server will start transcoding it. I haven’t really figured out what format is causing it, but it only happens when enabling subtitles.
Anyone else having this issue? Can I do anything to fix it?
I’ve found that as well with some files. At first I thought the issue was with the jellyfin instance had not enough capabilities, but after trying the same file with its subtitles, it worked on any other client: flatpak, web, and regular android. So for me it is the chromecast/androidtv device, so I am now looking what to replace it with
