Any recommended hardware device to ensure that I won’t need to transcode in order to burn ASS and PGS subtitles?

Right now I have a FireTV but it only direct plays SRT.

    I could be wrong but ass and pgs are image based and are “burned” because that’s the only way to make them compatible. Burning requires transcoding, end of story.

        Well crap, maybe Plex just doesn’t like them then

      Oh ok, that sucks :(

      I wonder how streaming services offer the ASS-like (hehe) subs without the burning delays.
