I read the rules and it looks like this is allowed? not asking for links.

I gave up on piracy years ago. My big issue, at the time, was how often my torrents for movies didn't have subtitles for the foreign language parts. I know there were subtitle packs i could get but that didn't work for me because, at the time, my thing was tossing it on a flash drive and playing it on my TV. The day I broke and started paying for digital movies on things like google play was when i watch both Civil War and Apocalypse in the same day. So many parts of those movies where i had NO IDEA WHAT WAS BEING SAID

I just now have set up my plex server. I got it running over there on my TV and dusted off my old piracy folder to test it out. My big question now that im coming back to this world is.....whos the big names I should be looking for on torrents? Is there someone who solves my subtitle issue? Back in the day YIFY was my favorite for consistent quality.

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
