nodiaque 31 Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Hello, I've checked under transcoding and there's a section saying EMBY can do extraction of the subtitles on the fly to prevent transcoding. I was wondering if something could be done so PGS are added to the extraction on the fly? On LG (and many other), PGS subs aren't supported and this trigger a burning, which trigger transcoding. So I though why not have them delivered with the extraction process instead and remove the transcoding? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37066 Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Hi, these are images, so the extraction will produce larger output and take longer. I don't think this would be feasible to do on the fly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your TV doesn't support PGS subs, then extracting the PGS subs from the video container isn't going to make them work. The option exists as some players don't handle subtitles that are muxed into the video container well, but will happily handle it if the subtitle track is served alongside the video. This will still cause transcoding in your case, as the problem is still that your TV doesn't support image based subtitles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
