Scanners vs Agents and the "new" agent together with subtitles

Plex Media Server Metadata & Adding Files
1

Server Version#: “latest”
Player Version#: “latest”

I’m absolutely fine with using the latest Plex way to get scan my library for movies and shows and episodes. I want to use it…

But also now doing some work with the Sub-Zero plugin, I notice that it only works for older agents, and when I later looking around in Plex, I see that the default Agent options for OpenSubtitles.org only is an option for agent Plex Movies (Legacy).

Are there now default options to add subtitles in Plex now, in an automatic way, for all users at once?

The new / current-generation of Plex agents (e.g. Plex Movie, Plex TV Series) don’t support complementary agents such as the Sub-Zero plugin.

Plex has an option for on-demand subtitles – however iirc those will not be downloaded to your file system.

OK, so there’s no in-built function to have subtitles downloaded for the library for all users, but only the on demand search that is for each user?

Should be available to all users.

Well, I don’t think so.
" Why can’t shared users see the subtitle I selected?

Subtitles searches are saved for each user separately. If a friend of yours needs a subtitle in different language than you, it will not show in your list."

Here’s what I mean had the OpenSubtitles.org as an automatic way to add subtitles for all users, even if not using SubZero.
