Shows the steps to download, install and configure the Plex plugin Sub-Zero to download localized subtitles.
Releases · pannal/Sub-Zero.bundle
Navigate to https://github.com/pannal/Sub-Zero.bundle/releases and then click on the download link for the latest and greatest version.
Copy the files to your Plex Plug-ins folder
Extract the zip file on your computer and then upload it to your Plex server. In this case it is a Synology NAS server so the target directory is: /volume1/Plex/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Plug-ins.
Another installtion option is to Dockerize Plex and then share folders between the container and host. This folder can be on a shared NAS folder where you keep the configuration and other shared folders are your actual media locations. In my case, I share the entire Library folder, where the plug-ins folder is easily accessible.
Enable the Sub-Zero plugin
Browse to your Plex web page and navigate to Home -> Settings -> Server -> Agents
- Choose the category you want to add the subtitle functionality to.
- Enable and move to the top (before Local Media Assets)
- Click on the settings to configure
Usage
Preferably set the agent to periodically make sure your library is up-to-date. You can also explicitly update by refreshing the metadata from within the web client.
- Click to refresh the metadata
- Select the appropriate language after successful match and download
