Naming convention for downloaded subtitles

Open zhengyinxi opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

currently I see you name subtitles as [Name]._[count].srt where count is from 0, 1, 2 and go on. Would it be better if you name subtitles like below, most media players load subtitle automatically if subtitle follows such convention:

  • [Name].avi
  • English Subtitles:[Name].en.srt
  • French Subtitles: [Name].fr.srt
  • Spanish Subtitles: [Name].es.srt
  • Chinese Subtitles:[Name].zh.srt

Good idea!

But there are more than one form of each language, and I can't find form for every language. Maybe we can do it.
