I've read quite a bit about the difficulty with the subtitles for the alien tracks. Now I have started to rip the new Star Wars Blu-Ray movies. Up to this point I would characterized my rips as pretty basic. Thanks to all the previous posts about the process in this forum. It's AndroidTV only and doesn't handle subtitles well, otherwise it's awesome.So, I've been ripping my Blu-Ray discs for the last few weeks now, with a combination of MakeMKV and Handbrake. It's super easy to make custom channels too. It takes your video collection and turns it into a 1990's style cable TV guide and pretends things are airing live, so if you don't know what you want to watch you can just channel surf. If you remember PsuedoTV for Kodi, it's exactly that except it works with an existing Plex, emby, or jellyfin server and sets itself up and runs with no fuss whatsover. On a side note, I recently discovered QuasiTV. I already put in a feature request years ago at the Plex forums. All I can come up with at this point is to have a seperate dub and sub copy and force Plex to treat them seperately, or switch to Jellyfin which also doesn't sound fun. And I still have to fiddle with audio and subtitle settings every episode.ĭoes anyone know of a good way of handling this on the fly? We're not going run a script to swap default mkv tracks every time one of us starts a series. One solution was to burn in the sign subtitle track, but the dialogue track also translates the signs and the two don't match up exactly making a mess. Jellyfin will keep the settings, but only if you start the next episode in the same session, which is a bit awkward. Now, if I only had to figure it out once per series it'd be fine, but Plex (and I believe emby too) reset to defaults for every episode.

So I've got dozens of TV series with two subtitle tracks labeled 'English' and I never know which is which. Most anime discs have a sub track for sign translations for the dub in addition to the dialogue sub track. One thing that's been bothering me about Plex is I have an extensive anime collection and my wife and I sometimes differ on sub vs dub.
