I've feel like I've used Plex forever. I also feel like every couple years I try Jellyfin to see how it's going. Recently I tried it again because of Plex restriction on more than one user.

Well, I just tried it again and it's substantially improved! This time it actually properly detected most of my library!

Also the Android TV app is AWESOME! No more glitches, lagging, and freezing trying to play my stuff like Plex did. It is butter smooth.

Wow! I'm impressed and I just deleted Plex. Good riddance.

Can you describe the subtitles issue you’re having? Do you know if there is an open bug report or feature request open on github or Jellyfin’s website?

    Not op but in my case it's the client ignoring embedded subtitles

    Which client are you seeing the issue on and can you provide more info on the type of embedded subtitle (run mediainfo on the file if on Linux)?

    Android TV and any file with embedded subtitles. Only external subtitles, if present, are shown. I understood that is because I'm using AMD hardware encoding and I assumed it was unfixable. Didn't investigate more as I'm going to switch to Intel soon
