Subtitle Downloading Configuration

[luser 37]

It would be amazing if you could configure subtitle downloading.

For example...
- Disallowing SDH subtitles, or prioritizing them as a last resort if no normal subtitles are available
- Allow/Deny list for users (users that upload subtitles)

Hi, what do you mean by upload subtitles?

Sorry I wasn't clear.

I meant it would be nice to have allow/deny list functionality for usernames that upload subtitles. Each site, for example opensubtitles.com, has subtitles that are uploaded by individual users. Each user has a unique username. Some users upload higher quality subtitles than others.  Some users create subtitles that I avoid (like a  <font> tag for every line). An allow/deny list could ensure that downloaded subtitles come from a desired source/user, and not from an undesired source/user.

Both of these features would save opensubtitles.com bandwidth and save the user from frustration.
Every time I add a show, I have to loop through and delete all the SDH subtitles.
After that, I have a few scripts to loop through files and check for "trollness" (such as a  <font> tag for every line). I edit these manually or sometimes download a different file.

I hope that is clearer.
