When streaming to other devices, Fire TV Recast transcodes 1080i streams to a resolution up to 1440 x 720p using H. Within the Captions and Audio section, you can configure subtitles and in my testing they work very well. From what I have read, it does not work very well with the 1st Generation Fire TV Stick which is expected due to its low processing power.

This is the screen for a specific recording which allows you to play your chosen show from the series or go into recording options. You can record a current show that is playing but you can’t schedule recordings for the future because there is no electronic program guide built into the app.
