Disable Plex Subtitle Burn In

General Discussions

Hi, Is there a way to turn off Plex from burning in subtitles for optimized content? I have some movies that require some optimization when playing on my devices. Once I optimized them, subtitles are burned in to the video itself and it is very annoying seeing them. Is there a way to turn them off when optimizing media? I usually use the Optimize for TV option to convert 4K content to 1080p.

I also have checked using vlc, and i can confirm that subtitles are burned in on the optimized media, but not on the original. I use an Apple TV 4 (not 4K)

Disable subtitles on the preplay screen of the movie, prior to optimiziation.
