oh fuck no, this kills qnapi and vlsub, doesn't it?
I'm afraid yes. I use their API to automatically download subs in jellyfin and I guess I'm gonna lose that too :(
Shit I just started using Jellyfin. How do I do this?
You have to set your username/password in the opensubtitle plugin, then you can download the subtitles for an episode directly through the UI (right click on episode and "edit subtitles"). You can also change the setting so that it automatically download subtitles for your language for every media that does not come with ones.
BUT I don't know for how long will this work, since the new policy
And Plex's on-demand subtitle download.
Plex uses .com for sure. .org has been deprecated for a while.
Ah, didn't notice the two. There was a short period the subtitles on Plex had the warning the API was going to change backed into them.
