I wanna keep both forced and normal version of a videos subtitle.
How do i name the subs to be correctly identified by PMS?
Videos are in MP4 container subs are external SRT.
I don’t wanna remux to MKV.
Can external subs be renamed to be identified as forced by PMS?
For all your media, follow Media Preparation guidelines as detailed in Plex documentation.
Specific to movie subtitles, see Local Media Assets - Movies.
There is a corresponding section for TV shows.
Make sure text-based subtitles are in UTF-8 format. Other formats may cause problems. SubTitle Edit is a good free tool with bulk conversion capabilities (Tools -> Convert menu) if you need to re-format multiple files.
Name of movie file (year).mkv
Name of movie file (year).eng.forced.srt
Name of movie file (year).eng.srt
Instead of eng, you can use any of the ISO 639-1
2-letter or ISO 639-2B 3-letter language codes
