Jellyfin has a couple subtitling features and plugins. It'll write subs as it streams. If the meta data is still intact, it'll automatically download subs.
was hoping to keep it more light-weight and not bring in a media server but i guess if i'm having this much of a pain doing things the old fashioned way, it's still an idea to try so thanks.
as far as meta data, any clue what it looks for?
asking cuz my collection is a hodgepodge of a bunch of different sources. Most of the stuff that is missing subs are a mix of tv shows and movies that came from either:
I was just poking around with
mediainfo
on a few movies I am looking for subs for currently and I see some of the ones that were downloaded appear to still have the original file in theMovie name
field (including the release group). OTA rips, I kinda feel like I'm probably fucked on bc they aren't even gonna match a standard duration but will check it outIf the video was ripped and prepared as a scene release, it'll download the specific subs for that release using the meta data (assuming they added it when released). If not, I haven't ran into a single issue using Jellyfins Opensubtitle plugin to grab a generic subtitle file for the movie/show if there is no scene info. Its always lined up well.
Don't really need a very powerful server to run Jellyfin. Most NAS hardware, or a Raspberry Pi 3+ handles it just fine. I ran it on a Raspi 3b for several years.
Jellyfins own "on the fly" subtitle writing works fine too...
