Hello everyone, scences with heavy .ASS subtitles are not rendering properly on the Apple tv 4k 2022. It did however render fine on my 8. gen ipad as far as i can tell. I also tried playing the file on the plex app, and the subtitles did render properly. Infuse version 7.6.1

There have been a number of improvements for subtitles in recent Infuse updates , including the most recent 8.4.7 update which includes performance for files that include embedded fonts.
