Hi,
I was wondering, since I was not able to find an option for it, if it is possible to restrict subtitles to clients that can use them without burning them in? I.e. a way to disable subtitle burn in.
Since my jellyfin server hardware is not made for burning in subtitles, or generally transcoding, I need a way to disable burn in since not so tech savvy people in my household select subtitles willy-nilly and the server is overwhelmed if the client cannot deal with them.
I was already able to disabled subtitle extraction since that was bogging down the server as well when trying out subtitles. It kept extracting even though I already stopped the video.
Thanks for the info on how I may do that.
