Open Subtitles Question


Recommended Posts

Most of my movies have embedded subtitles which can turn out to be huge and I'm unable to change the font size.  My understanding is that it's normal since they are embedded.  When I manually add a .srt file, I can make them really small at the very bottom of the screen so they don't interfere or become a distraction if I don't need them at a particular time in a movie.

Anyway, when I rip my movie, I name it MovieName.Bluray.mkv.  If I enable Open Subtitles, how will Emby match my naming convention to the subtitle?  When I go to opensubtitles.org, they are all named according to the usenet rip name.  Like MoveName.Bluray.x265.sparks.mkv or something.

How will Emby match them up provided it is even possible?

Hi, it will use a hash of the file and if there's no match on that, then other things such as file name, imdb id, etc.

Thanks.  The hash would be dependent on what I ripped with the movie.  For example, if I only included English subtitles vs English and French?  Those two files would have a different hash?

I also read somewhere that if it had embedded subtitles that Emby would skip the file?  Is that still the case?

Hi, it depends on your settings for EACH library
