The bazarr tip is great, especially if you use radarr and sonarr. Even without it, Plex will let you search for subtitles and can find decent ones most of the time. I ran into enough cases where tv shows didn't have subtitles so I made a bazarr docker-compose, pointed it at my movies and tv directories, and have had zero issues since. Automatically grabs it and everything, if you want subtitles on something you just downloaded you can go into the webui and search immediately instead of waiting too
Will there be subtitles specifically only for parts of the movies that are foreign language though? That's my big thing I don't want subtitles the entire time
Ahh, that's more difficult, but should be doable in theory. It will likely have to be done manually (not sure if bazarr has a setting for it), you'll be looking for subtitles that have "forced" in the name somewhere. I know the subtitles you can get natively in Plex sometimes offer forced versions, but I don't watch many shows with foreign language in them
hrm shit. ill look into that. that was literally what drove me away from piracy in the first place lol. so many movies have random chunks where they slip into a foreign language. Like Apocalypse. Horrible movie but the shit with Magnetos family being killed was actually good.....the second time I saw it and knew what was being said anyways.
I looked into it, bazarr does have an option for looking for forced subtitles so it can handle that automatically for you too! (Also hearing impaired and exclude audio options). You can set it on a per-language basis too if you happen to speak/read multiple languages
Awesome thanks!!!
