Unlike removable subtitles, burned-in subtitles do not require any additional hardware or software to be displayed. This removes the need for viewers to have separate subtitle files or compatible media players, making the video more accessible and convenient.

Burned-in subtitles become an integral part of the video, ensuring that they are always available and will not be lost or misplaced over time. This is especially important for archival purposes or when sharing videos across platforms or devices.

Overall, adding burned-in subtitles to a video using Nero Recode can improve accessibility, overcome language barriers, provide convenience, ensure preservation, and cater to individual preferences.
