Hi,
I have a Tizen OS KU6300 series Samsung, I’m trying to get this sorted.
Problem:
When i play a 4K movie, it goes Directplay, no lag, no buffer, nothing, up to 65mbps quality.
Then i add the .SRT-file and all hell brakes lose, it starts to use transcoding (throttled)
The .srt is not embeeded, its external. Why shouldnt it be able to play this without transcoding?
I have selected (Images only) in burn in subtitles.
My processor says 4-8% usage, but the video still buffers.
I would love for someone to help
Thanks
Martin
i’ve the exact same problem on a KU6000 serie Samsung TV
Can’t find a way to get it working.
Without the sub it works flawless, as soon as I enable the External SUB… things get bad 
Any Solution so far?
The KU6**** serie is capable of playing srt by itself, so why does it have to transcode?
It has to be the player on the samsung, the computer runs @ 4-6% CPU usage. There should be a way to force the TV not to transcode if it was a subtitle. The whole experience with plex and 4k / samsung should get fixed.

Samsung TV supports a wide variety of subs both external and internal. I can play the same movie from a usb drive fine. The issue is Plex.
Dwain, you also has this problem in the plex client? So youre putting the movie + srt on a USB-stick and then into the TV and play it ? How can the TV find/determine the SRT-file itself?
