stratos67 0 Posted February 27, 2018 Author Share Posted February 27, 2018 For example, The.Blacklist.S02E05.720p.HDTV.X264-DIMENSION.srt if this is what you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37113 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 For example, The.Blacklist.S02E05.720p.HDTV.X264-DIMENSION.srt if this is what you want. Yes, try renaming it to: The.Blacklist.S02E05.720p.HDTV.X264-DIMENSION.gre.srt Then run a scan on that folder, and after that the subs should display correctly. Thanks.

stratos67 0 Posted February 27, 2018 Author Share Posted February 27, 2018 Thank you. Meanwhile, i think i found another solution that seems to work I opened the file with notepad and changed the encoding by "save as", from ANSI to UTF-8 And it works fine! But now, i have to change all tie subs of my library....i hope i can find a way to massively change all...and not one by one... Thanks again!!
