Enable forced subtitles by subtitle name

Hello

Not sure how it is in US releases, but here in Germany it unfortunately happens quite often that forced subtitles are not marked correctly as „forced“, but there is just the subtitle name which points that out, like

forced
force
German Forced


or

(f)


So it would be really great if Emby could also determine by these subtitle strings to enable them or not (based on the settings the user selected).


What do you think?

best regards

At least nobody says something against it lol

 

@ebr@Lukewould you mind adding that somewhere on your ToDo list? 
I also often see this from own dvd rips - not marked as forced, but „force“ is in the subtitle title.

Just a suggestion.
You can use the header editor in MKVToolnix to set subtitles correctly.

That's why I extract embedded SRT subs and put them alongside the file itself.

Doing so it's much easier to manage imo.

I feel with you, was the same for me. I used to store everything inside the mkv to keep it cleaner with less files but had to change it.

It was a learning journey for me but now I'm quite satisfied with the setup. 🙂

Hopefully the team will consider adding that request.
