Subtitle filesnames without language suffix

Hi,

I've setup automatic subtitle downloading on my synology following the guide, which works great, but filebot keeps renaming each file to *.eng.srt. I would like to get rid of the .eng suffix, otherwise my TV doesn't play it.

is there any flag or something I could add to the filebot -script fn:suball command?
Or should I try to edit it out in the suball script?

Thanks,
R

If you're doing -get-subtitle calls (either directly or indirectly via the suball script) then the --format option allows the following values:

Name video and subtitle files exactly the same (i.e. what you want)

Code: Select all

--format MATCH_VIDEO
Name video and subtitle almost the same adding the language suffix to the latter (i.e. default)

Code: Select all

--format MATCH_VIDEO_ADD_LANGUAGE_TAG
Keep the original subtitle file name:

Code: Select all

--format ORIGINAL
