Subtitle not saved in media folder

[cyberrep 8]

I have this option on advanced config, and when I search and download it save in 

/var/lib/emby/metadata/library/fe/fe8c6352aa72189c43ae70e00b283d8e/ (for example)

 

1-Its possible to fix it?

2-Its possible to move from this folder to correct series or movie?

 

 

/var/lib/emby/metadata/library/

Hi there, please attach the Emby server log from when the problem occurred:

Thanks!

looks like just series its going to this folder, movies running well.

The server is probably being denied write access to your media folder.

humm

I try a new one and save in correct folder.

 

this one is going to wrong folder bd3d6d9a6aa4cff1d999484e59a67116

Maybe permission?

There is no function to move it, sorry. You would have to delete the existing ones and then download again.

When the GrimReaper requests you better deliver!  

I added an option to copy or move the external subtitles, this is all only possible when exporting to custom folder. WARNING: Moving as the name suggests will move the subtitles out of the original video folder!
Also moved the "Export to custom folder" to the main tab for ease of use.

Hope it helps
