Is it possible to have 3-5 versions of the same movie files in different formats and the same with sound files and subtitles, and from that plex choose the one that fits the client Best to avoid transcoding. Example: Blahblah 1080p h.264 Blahblah 720p h.264 Blahblah SD h.264 Blahblah 64khz.en.mp3 Blahblah en.srt Etc etc Kind regards, Lthasenhod ---

Yes, you can have [several versions](https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/200381043-Multi-Version-Movies "several versions") of a movie. No, Plex does not support external audio files. No, subtitles files have to be [named exactly like the video file](https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/200471133-Adding-Local-Subtitles-to-Your-Media "named exactly like the video file") they belong to. (plus of course their language code.) ---
