OK so now that I understand a bit much the problem, I see that everyone using Plex on Shield TV has the problem : New option! Burn Subtitles: Avoid at all costs
I still don’t understand why Plex is so complex, I just wanted to organize my files properly and play them on my Gigabit LAN, but now you are telling me that VLC is a better option…
Where can I ask for an enhancement on Shield’s Plex Client where subtitles are not burned, as VLC works properly ? Everyone is asking it…
Insisting on the fact that EVERYONE has the problem : NVidia Shield: SRT subtitles causing "burn subtitles" to activate when audio is also transcoded
Last reply was on March :
Looks like maybe some help for this is on the horizon, though still pretty far away:
We have plans to resolve this issue, and we’ve made some good progress on it. There are some changes required in PMS to support what we need that have been made, but are not yet released. Once these have landed, we’ll be looking to make use of in the Android app as soon as we can.
Thanks for the help to understand what’s going on, but now can you tell me if there is a chance to see this issue solved ?..
