I’m super happy now that Plex has a DVR function. It makes life so much easier not having to manage DVR, media center, and HTPC functions from three different apps. Plex DVR records scheduled TV programs through my HDhomerun flawlessly, and the Program Guide makes scheduling this simple. There one hiccup though. When it records a TV show, it does so with embedded subtitles. This is also great because it saves me from having to rely on external subtitle sources. The unfortunate part is that they don’t show up on any Plex media player. I have tried the Amazon Fire app, the local PC and mac apps, and even the web player. None of these recognize any of the embedded subtitles. They just say None in the subtitle area of the program. I have have scoured the forums, and applied just about every fix I could find, including setting up the agents correctly within the Plex server settings. Nothing works. I know the subtitles are there because they show up when I play the .ts files in Kodi. I would rather not have to use Kodi to play my TV recordings. It would be nice to use Plex for this. Please help.
