In Libreelec I am using Jellyfin for Kodi. I have enabled force transcoding. I would like the subtitles in Jellyfin to be burned into the video with no exceptions. There's an option to disable subtitle extraction on the fly but this doesn't burn in the subtitles

Forcing subtitle burn in would require every item to be transcoded.

In Jellyfin you need to go to User Settings > Subtitles > Burn > All.
And probably change subtitle mode too to always have them on.
Then in Jellyfin add-on for Kodi you need to make sure you go via the jellyfin server (add-on mode I think?) not native mode.

Ohh, you've just found a great workaround to a problem I have with my Google TV. It direct plays 4K HDR videos with ogg audio (quite poorly, I might add) I'd rather have transcoded.
