Auto Organize external subs

[instantsunrise 3]

Can the auto-organize plug-in be expanded to cover external subtitle files?  I use MCEbuddy in conjunction with Emby and NextPVR, and it’s configured to extract the closed captioning data from the video stream and generate an SRT file from it.  This SRT file is then identically named to the video file and placed in a watch folder where Emby’s auto-organize plugin grabs it, renames it and places it into the library.

Is there a way that the auto-organize plugin can also rename and organize the subtitle files alongside the video files?

basically what I’d like to have happen is that when there’s a pair of files named something like “Series Name (YYYY)-S01E02-Episode Title.mkv” and “Series Name (YYYY)-S01E02-Episode Title.srt” in the watch folder, both the SRT and MKV files get moved.

That seems pretty straight forward.

I can add the .srt extension to the array of extensions the plugin understands. 

Then, we should be able to compare the names and make sure they go into the same folder.

We should probably look at .sub as another possibility as well.

@instantsunrise would you like to join the conversation over here:https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/88730-auto-organize-expanding-its-functionality

 

I commandeered the thread for the latest plugin updates.

I am about to work on subtitle file sorting next.
