This is less of an issue with movies and much more of a problem with TV shows. It seems many of the shows I watch aren’t encoded with subs included.
I’ve got the Open Subtitles plugin installed in Jellyfin.
If I set my library to only download perfect matches, it gets almost none.
If I set it to grab any, they’re more-often-than-not mistimed, and then I have to take the manual shotgun approach. Doing this for each episode creates massive admin overhead.
Is there a better way?
You can run Bazarr alongside Sonarr to automatically search for subs if they aren’t encoded in the file.
Came here to bring up Bazarr. Its the only *arr I haven’t opened up since initial deployment and setup. It’s only failed me on a couple of media items so far so that’s like…99.9997% success without me even touching anything
I use Bazarr alongside sonarr and radarr and it works pretty darn well
Bazarr, literally built to get subtitles.
My suggestion is to identify a release group that works for you (I.e with sub for the language you need) and setup the arr for those rather than using
