Check subtitles

Dev Community Dev/API Corner

Hi,

 

After digging here https://code.google....plex-api/w/list and here https://docs.google....=h.k434y18gzsvt, I still cannot find the answer to my question : subtitles... where can I find them ? With the HTTP API I crawled the whole tree... nothing. I scanned the database... nothing.

 

I would like to write a little script to get the status for my tv shows : are the subtitles yet downloaded or not. If they are not then I could launch an agent to refresh the metadata and try again to get them...

 

Any idea where I should look ?

 

Regards,

matt.

You need to fetch the metadata xml for each episode. In the xml you'll find a node that looks like:

If you don't have a Stream node with a streamType="3" attribute then the episode doesn't have subtitles.

That's it !

Stopped my digging one level higher. By bad !

Thank you.
