Subtitles improvement

[Azor 14]

I would like to suggest a couple of improvements regarding subtitles management with Emby!

 

• Would it be possible to add a "Search for subtitle" button inside the Emby web client ? Some projects under GNU licence already offer that functionality through CLI (in example : Periscope, pooling subtitles from 7 different sources with a possibility to chose between subtitles, https://code.google.com/p/periscope/), and having it inside Emby would be huge.

 

• Would it be possible to have a "Refresh Subtitle" inside the Emby web player ? As for now we have to close the player, and play the video back again when we download/override a new subtitle.

 

I think that the first proposal might be best created using a plugin, but I feel that the second one could be included in Emby.

Please note that I have no idea about the amount of work that would be needed for those two proposals.

 

Props for developing an awesome tool as Emby is!
