I remember that when I was using XBMC it was allowing to choose which subtitles
are right.
My idea would be to have additional and optional switch which will decide how
many best matching subtitles should downloaded, additional I would propose to
have another optional switch which will decide in what format multiple
subtitles should be saved.
So for example if you choose top 5 subtitles in english you might end up with
these files:
my_video_file_name.eng1.srt
my_video_file_name.eng2.srt
my_video_file_name.eng3.srt
my_video_file_name.eng4.srt
my_video_file_name.eng5.srt
where eng1 will be the best matching subtitle.
Knowing that some player might have problems with finding subtitle ...eng1...
this one will be also copied to file:
my_video_file_name.srt
In this way player not capable to find subtitles with extra characters (like
...engN...) will still work, and for other players (like mine) I will be able
to switch between the most suitable ones.
I know this is against the idea of finding the best matching subtitles but
unfortunately the reality is that it's not always working correctly and human
intervention is needed :)
I might look into code to see how many changes would be needed for such
additional functionality.
PS
If none of optional (top + format) parameters will be set then periscope will
work as it is now.
