Hey there,
I want my media folders to include only the media file itself, no subtitles or anything else. Is there a commandline option to parse or a workaround to move subtitles to a different folder?
Thanks

Hey,
I tried this and did not achieve my goal but probably I just worded my request badly. I'm sorry, not a native speaker. I'd like AMC to not fetch any subtitle files. I think it's designed to download and convert subs and place them in the destination folder. While this is a really nice feature, I'd like to opt-out of it.

Short update: I messed up the "ignore"-command as I had three of them (for .idx, .srt, .sub). Combining them into
did the job. Re-reading the amc.log lead me to this and some googling brought me to a thread here where this pattern was used in a similar case.
Thanks for your support!
