Palantir for Plex - A third-party toolbox for the PMS database

I'd love to see some sort of subtitle-grading and removal.
For instance, in a TV-episode I might have 8 different english subtitles and 2 swedish ones.

The reason?
My automated setup first downloads a TV-episode in HDTV quality, then in WEBDL-quality and lastly in Bluray quality. 3 different subtitles for each release - but as far as Plex is concerned, its the same episode. Bam, 3 english subtitles... and theeeeen.

The built-in agent doesn't work reliably, and therefore I also have Filebot automatically downloading subtitles. Plex doesn't store subtitles in the same directory as the file, which means that as far as Filebot is concerned, there is no subtitle. Bam, you just doubled the amount of subtitles (in case the metadata agent found subs for them all).

This thing happens twice, because I store everything in both english and swedish (I prefer english, my family doesn't).

I'd love to have something that lets me play a file, see if a particular subtitle is in sync and then mark that as "correct sync" or something. I'd do this when the episode was finally in bluray-format. The others I'd want to have discarded.

How are things progressing otherwise?

Very very slow progress still. We are still trying to find a good way to safely upload the database over different protocols after the database has been locally altered by the app.

It is mostly taking time because my friend (who is the better coder) has had almost no time to dedicate to this project the last months. Trying to poke him gently from time to time :)

I'm still very interested in this, hope you have good progress :)

I especially need the correction of DTS-MA audio tracks :(

New job, and my friend decided to learn Swift instead, kind of made this project enter limbo land. Will try to gently nudge him about this.
