Question regarding forced subtitles - marcusnyder - 2024-11-06

I have a few movies where there are short foreign parts that need forced subtitles.

Before moving to Jellyfin I would download the subtitles into a local .srt file but I see that there is a OpenSubtitles plugin available for Jellyfin.

Before I went to the trouble of setting it up and registering for an account I thought I would ask on here if it's able to forces subtitles for foreign parts only or is it more setup to load subtitles for all dialogue?

Thanks.

AFAIK, Opensubtitles does not have foreign language only subtitles.

You CAN have external forced subtitles, but not from Opensubtitles.
