abescalamis 76 Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 (edited) Downloading subtitles in the TV app is very annoying, you have move one by one until you go to the language you are looking for and in the TV the switching interface is very slow. wanted to suggest a better way to display the language menu for the TV app, because you use a tv controller and there is no scrolling. I did an example for a better understanding, in the preferred part I put the languages that are set in the server to automatically download. When I want to download subtitles I avoid the TV app, I rather use the phone or the Ipad because unlike the TV app, you can scroll fast and go directly to the language you want.

ebr 14856 Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 Yes, navigating long lists with only linear navigation (a remote control) can be problematic. That is why we don't always have a lot of administrative tasks in the TV UI. However, I think this suggestion is useful throughout the system. Where, again are your "preferred" languages coming from?

In my example, for the "preferred" I used the same languages that I have set in library for automatic subtitle download---> English, spanish, Italian.

ebr 14856 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Okay, that's an interesting idea but perhaps it would just be better if we remembered ones you chose previously because you may automatically download a certain set but manually look for others. The very first time you'd have to scroll the list but, after that, the ones you chose would be right there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F1nchy 24 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 I'd imagine that most people would only ever want the same one language, I'd rather have just the one language I always want (English) as the only option on the list and have the setting somewhere else where users can select the language options they want listed. If that's too difficult, at least have the preferred one at the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denino 6 Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 This is the one feature that I'm looking forward to being solved the most. It's super annoying, not only because of the long scrolling itself, but also because my wife will hound me about it when she's watching her shows. Sometimes the downloaded subtitle will not match the media content, and for some reason she doesn't have much sympathy for my explanation that the Emby team has a lot of other difficult things to solve, but I'm sure they'll find a solution eventually! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paxtor 7 Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 sorry I didn't see this topic Posted Sunday at 08:48 AM HI, I have one suggestion... While watching a movie, and when you want to search for the subtitle language, all language countries are always displayed in the search. This is a very annoying and time-consuming search for subtitles. Can you give option to filter languages for subtitles in main settings? for example, I mark two languages (Englisch and Germany) and while watching a movie, when I choose to search for subtitles language, only those two languages are displayed, which I can mark in the main settings. Can you do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iversennn 0 Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Hi, 1+ for me also. This would be very handy. I’m from Norway, so the languages i preferably search through are: English, Norwegian, Swedish, and Danish. I then must scroll up and down every time i don’t find a subtitle in my native language.

dnta84 0 Posted Tuesday at 02:32 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 02:32 PM (edited) +1 By the way, on my LG TV, I can use Channel Up Down button to scroll through the list, a little bit quicker than going down one by one. But the long list is still annoying Edited Tuesday at 02:38 PM by dnta84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
