External subtitles - Reports - Naming

[Appl3seed 1]

Hi,

 

Currently using firefox on windows 10 and Version 3.0.5972.0.

 

Just a couple of questions about subs.

 

1; When running reports (movies or TV shows) I noticed most of the time Emby is failing to correctly identify items with external srt subtitles (or drawing the tickmark in the sub column for those items)

sometimes it does (after a complete refresh of the movie or TV tree) but 99% of the time, it doesn't and just draws one single tickmark in the middle of the report. ex:

2. When the download subtitles option is enabled, Emby is saving results with a "name.eng.srt" name. Could this be "name.en.srt" as it is currently the naming used by eg Kodi when retrieving subs in english

 

Many thanks

Can't find it right now but this has been reported before.  As well as Trailers that check mark in the center of the screen is the actual indicators.

 

@@Luke -  Looks likes an issue with "left", "top" and "margin-top" deselecting them realigns everything and "margin-left" to 11px instead of -11px (at least in Chrome).

Here is a temporary fix custom css.  Looked correct in Edge, FireFox, and Chrome.  But I think this will probably fixed in the next release.

#tblReport .ui-btn-icon-notext:after, .ui-btn-icon-top:after, .ui-btn-icon-bottom:after, ul[data-role="listview"] a + a:after {
    left: auto;
    margin-left: 11px;
}

#tblReport .ui-btn-icon-notext:after, .ui-btn-icon-left:after, .ui-btn-icon-right:after, ul[data-role="listview"] a + a:after {
    top: auto;
    margin-top: auto;
}

@@Luke - Will a fix to the Reports.html (Subtitles, Trailers, Specials) make into this coming release?

Thanks a lot Happy2play,

 

I would love to see your fix for reports in the release to come.

 

For .eng vs .en naming it is clearly not a big deal (or even a bug), just a personnal preference, but is there any reason to keep it different from Kodi subtitle addon rules?

If so, is there a fix/change I can manually do on my setup to change the naming?

 

Cheers

Don't use Kodi but with some googling can't you use a advancedsettings.xml and set/map the languagecode?

we can look at supporting the kodi convention as well.

Hi There

 

I noticed some fix had been released for the subtitles reports. Thanks for that. But there is still a little bug (at least here, with firefox 47 and latest emby stable release used as a windows service)

 

If I go first to the metadata manager html (do nothing there) and then go to the reports html, I get the sub checkmarks displayed correctly.

But when I open my emby localhost page and browse straight to the reports from the Home menu, I still get the single checkmark.

 

Let me know if you can reproduce or need more info.

Thanks for the report.

Hi,

 

I want to join App3lseed in the "eng" vs "en" namining.
I tried ealier on the forum, but without succes.
http://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/26678-server-choose-subtitle-addition/?hl=%2Bsubtitle+%2Bextension

 

The problem is, that the default option in Kodi is using the short extension and most other programs for searching subs (windows and linux) use the "en" version.

As a result my whole library uses this and gets messed up when using Emby's feature.

Is is still possible to implement an option to download subtitles with the "en" extension ??

Hi,

 

Trying to revive this topic.
Any news on supporting the kodi subtitle naming convention as well in Emby?
 

[Luke 42085]

can you give some examples? thanks.

[G1zm0 13]

Emby is searching for subtitles using a different convention than Kodi.
Example: for English subtitles is uses Moviename.eng.srt, where Kodi is using Moviename.en.srt
This leads to multiple downloads performed by Emby when the latter is already in place.

My proposal is to make it optional for Emby user to let Emby adhere to the same conventions as Kodi, which is more common, in my opinion.
