What is the easiest subtitle approach?

HStone32 , 4 months ago

The easiest approach is to use a client that is capable of multiplexing any subtitle codec. Something like findroid for android, and I'm assuming Kodi can do it too.

What's your goal?

Bazarr?

I have the srt files already, I’m just looking for the easiest way for jellyfin to recognize them

Name them following the filename documentation and you should be good to go

ILikeBoobies OP , 5 months ago

Documentation says

Film.de.srt

Should it be filename(minus extension).de.srt?

Yep. That should do it. Try it on one before doing them all, but that's exactly what I do and it works great.

Bazarr was a bit of a pain to set up, since I ended up wanting provider accounts to get around some rate limits, but it's solid for me now and pretty configurable. I use Plex but I'm assuming you can use the same strategy with jellyfin.

Yeah +1 for Bazarr, has been working flawlessly for me for movies and series together with the other -arrs for Jellyfin for years.

Bazarr is great. When I set it up a while ago I just went with open subtitles and bought a VIP account so it wouldn't take ages to populate all my movies. A VIP account was cheap enough that I didn't mind.
