Most of us are aware how geoblocks are one more reason people nudge towards piracy. Well, I didn't knew that companies imposed geoblocks even on free content.

Wait, jellyfin can download subtitles?

It can, there's an Open Subtitles plugin that can automatically download subtitles in specified languages that match (or don't) the file hashes of your media. Being an open database of subtitles, though, YMMV. You configure it on a per-library basis.

Well, the *arr stack can.

That bit is called Bazarr. You do occasionally have to dick about as well, as the subs might not be for that file, different cuts of the movie, different studio credits depending on where it was ripped from, etc.

Fortunately most movie and TV rips contain the subs in the mkv file.

Thanks, I was mostly wondering about Japanese series and especially anime, which sometimes seem impossible to get with Japanese subtitles outside of japan
