Any recommended hardware device to ensure that I won’t need to transcode in order to burn ASS and PGS subtitles?

Right now I have a FireTV but it only direct plays SRT.

    Anything Android-based using the builtin Exoplayer (Google’s open-source AOSP media player of choice for Android) will need transcoding since Exo doesn’t support styled subtitles fully.

    Feel free to echo your frustration there, Google is unlikely to care otherwise I’m afraid.
