    Hi! I wanted to report an issue I'm having with the Android TV app of Jellyfin.

    To begin with, it's about some files (One Pace episodes) which have a bunch of subtitles and attached fonts. This was causing some issues with my computer to play it back; I couldn't play it in my Android TV, and it stuttered a lot in my client computer (using Jellyfin Media Player). I removed all subtitles I didn't need and extracted the ones I did, deleting all attachments and unnecessary fluff, and it worked great in my computer.

    It didn't, however, run in my Android TV. When I played it, the activity report showed it to be playing in the TV in direct stream, but it didn't even start playing on the TV. After a while, it just "dropped" the activity on the hub i was monitoring from, and started pointing out there had been an error on the player in the TV. 

    Here's the logs
    Here are ffmpeg's logs

    And here's the file I was trying to play

    Any help would be greatly appreciated Smiling-face

    So, now after some testing I see it doesn't work when I'm using an external .ass subtitle. It *does* work with an external .srt subtitle. With the .ass file it just errors out.
