          Thanks for your sympathy! It’s not all bad, Kodi is awesome, and plex is great on Android Mobile and web. But yeah, the Android TV variant needs some love.

      No it’s not at all. I’m not sure what part of their config is causing this, but I specifically have people use either a CCwGTV, Fire Stick, or Apple TV for HEVC and none of the Chromecast users have had any complaints. I have subtitles turned on across the entire server too.

          No why would I ever burn subs? I direct play either MKV or MP4 and overlay the subs. You just need the right client devices to direct play. One thing about the CC that is a definite issue is you can’t cast from your phone, you have to use the actual Plex Android TV app. If you’re playing high bitrate 4K, you might need an ethernet adapter and power supply with some more wattage

          Edit: users are welcome to change their subtitle settings, but the default on my server is English subs if available.

            You might burn subs because not burning them is buggy af. I’m using the native app, I don’t ever cast. I have a 60W PSU, and a USB hub with builtin GbE and a fast 64GB thumb drive setup as Android system storage. And again, Kodi has zero trouble whatsoever on this device, even with very demanding workloads (an NFS client on a huge library, and also a TVheadend HTSP client for an ATSC tuner). And I don’t ever even play 4k.
