I want Plex to automatically detect those subtitles without me having to move them to the same folder as the movie file. Where I get my movies from includes subtitles for each movie in the same “Subs” subfolder. Currently, Plex only seems to detect the subtitles when refreshing metadata if I move the subtitle file to the same folder as the movie file. I don’t want to have move them for the hundreds of movies I have and for every time I download a new one.
There’s already an existing feature suggestion discussing that option. I suggest you comment/vote in that thread in order to help us avoid distracting or cannibalizing votes.
Unless I’m missing some unique aspect of your suggestion I’ll close this thread as a duplicate.
Sorry, didn’t see that in the search. Seems like it has been a request since 2010 and nothing has been done though. Guess it won’t happen. Shame because it really wouldn’t be that hard…
