bustychicksftw 1 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 As of now the emby player when searching for subtitles searches by the file name. This is very inconvenient. There can be a lot of noise in file names. Plex allows the user to modify the search query and so does the external player I use. I find it very strange UI/UX-wise that I cannot do this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There can be a lot of noise in file names. Hi, we send multiple search criteria and it matches them all, including the file hash, imdb id, the title from emby, and the file name.

bustychicksftw 1 Posted January 10, 2021 Author Share Posted January 10, 2021 So I'm guessing you won't be implementing the feature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36886 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Implementing what feature? We already have information in the database about the media item. Why is that not sufficient to locate subtitles with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bustychicksftw 1 Posted January 10, 2021 Author Share Posted January 10, 2021 (edited) Because this doesn't mean they were necessarily implemented properly on OpenSubtitles' website even if they are setup on Emby's end. With a search query based on an editable string, I can. Edited January 10, 2021 by bustychicksftw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
