Subtitles

[ivan]

Those file names should work as long as the Jellyfin user has permission to read them.

Thank you for replying! I had a look at the link you shared and I'm OK.

My Jellyfin server is new. My stuff is working, mostly. There's some exceptions, but I think those are related to subtitles that exist within an MKV file. I also have a lot of content where the subtitles are in a subfolder (a legacy from Plex), and in those cases subtitles are not appearing. Naturally, I don't know which is which from the top of my head, so while watching some old content, just browsing and testing, some subtitles are not appearing.

So when I posted my question, it was more towards the op. I wanted to understand what was his point. But upon reading again and checking his screenshots, I got what he meant.

Before, this was not working for him:

• movie-title.forced.en.srt
  

Afterwards, he found this is the way:

• movie-title.en.forced.srt
  

Small but important detail that I will try to remember, in case I need forced or sdh subtitles (rarely do).
