SUBALL external subtitle, ignore/skip help

Post by nelbin »

Hi, im having dumb problems with command line for SUBALL. I can't seem to find any options to do it. Let me explain

Im using:
filebot.exe --script fn:suball "D:/__MOVIES" -r -non-strict --def excludeList=amc.txt

/FILM1 (2016)
-----Film 1 (2016).mkv
-----Film 1 (2016).srt
-----Film 1 (2016).eng.srt <-- made by suball

Is there a way to make suball ignore/skip the "film 1" if external subtitles is present?

You could move/copy all *.srt files to *.eng.srt files (e.g. using the replace script) and it'll work.

But without the .eng language tag, FileBot won't be able to "find all missing English subtitles" that need to be downloaded.
:idea: Please read the FAQ and How to Request Help.

i used this code in command prompt. it's faster :)

Code: Select all

for /r %x in (*.srt) do ren "%x" *.eng.srt

Hi,

I have the exact issue. I understand that FileBot cannot understand that the missing english subtitle is, in fact, not missing.

But cannot we force FileBot not to download a subtitle if another "srt" file is there? Because I have a lot of series with subtitles in it, and quite all of them have the exact name of the file. But I don't want FileBot to consider these movies with missing subtitles..

Regards,
Sam'
