From the new version of the Android TV APP 0.17.4 all videos with subtitles in ASS format are no longer played and the player crashes.
Given that I have already read several posts on the subject and it is clear that you have removed support for ASS subtitles and you have also removed the ability to change the Player in the APP. Without wanting to criticize your work but it seems absurd to me that you continue to update the APP sacrificing very important previous features ... the ASS subtitle format is a modern format and even superior to SRT and more than 50% of the Films in circulation are based on this format so it is absurd that a new version of the APP is released that sacrifices a fundamental and not at all obsolete feature! ... The first rule of software engineering is that things that work well should not be touched until they become truly obsolete! ... improving the APP with new trivial features sacrificing the old but still useful, important and functional is a very wrong choice! ...
Forgive the outburst, it is not to criticize your exceptional work, but after the latest update of the Android TV app I find the Jellyfin Server practically unusable for more than 50% of the contents! ... how can I solve this problem? ...
I hope you have a server-side solution that is not to re-encode the subtitles of thousands of Movies.
My Jellyfin server is based on the latest version 10.9.7 that works on Raspberry 4.
Thanks
