Keeping subtitle language

[lucetuweb.com]

Hi all,

I just discoverer this nice application and I liked a lot, but I miss a feature that is not included in any similar application neither.
But this application has source code available, so I download it and include a little code for this feature, keeping subtitle language, I mean for .srt files ending like this:
TVShow - Season - Episode.Eng.srt
or
TVShow - Season - Episode.Spa.srt
I code this in a few minutes and is not checked properly and I don't know if is coded right way according with the author but I just shared here if someone is interested:
in the function:

Code: Select all

public void RenameAndMissingCheck(SetProgressDelegate prog, ShowItem specific)

look for the line:

Code: Select all

if (renCheck && this.Settings.UsefulExtension(fi.Extension, true)) // == RENAMING CHECK ==

and substitute the whole if for this new one:

Code: Select all

if (renCheck && this.Settings.UsefulExtension(fi.Extension, true)) // == RENAMING CHECK ==
                            {
                                string newname;
                                if (fi.Extension != ".srt")                               
                                    newname = this.Settings.FilenameFriendly(this.Settings.NamingStyle.NameForExt(ep, fi.Extension));                                                                   
                                else
                                {
                                    //! Code for preserving subtitle language
                                    string subtitleLanguage = "";
                                    string filename = fi.Name.Substring(0, fi.Name.Length - fi.Extension.Length);
                                    int indexDot = filename.LastIndexOf(".");
                                    if (indexDot > filename.Length - 5)
                                        subtitleLanguage = filename.Substring(indexDot, filename.Length - indexDot);
                                    newname = this.Settings.FilenameFriendly(this.Settings.NamingStyle.NameForExt(ep, fi.Extension));
                                    newname = newname.Substring(0, newname.Length - fi.Extension.Length) + subtitleLanguage + fi.Extension;                                     
                                }
                                if (newname != actualFile.Name)
                                {
                                    actualFile = Helpers.FileInFolder(folder, newname); // rename updates the filename
                                    this.TheActionList.Add(new ActionCopyMoveRename(ActionCopyMoveRename.Op.Rename, fi, actualFile, ep));
                                }
                            }


I would like to say a BIG THANK YOU to the author of this cool application TVRename. If you do not like this, please feel free to delete it

Best regards,
Rafa

Rafa,

That sounds exactly like what I want - is there some way to get a copy of the patched file from you?

Hello John,

I respect a lot the owner of the application, I am a programmer too. So if him let me send the application modified to you I will do it.
I will wait until him say his opinion.

have a nice day!

Totally agree on this feature.

If possible, the languages should be configurable. As far as I understand, the "standard" for subtitle languages is *filename*.*lan*.*ext* where lan is a two character language code i.e. EN (English), NO (Norwegian), DK (Danish). However, I like to format the languages in their full name. Ex. *filename*.Norwegian.*ext* instead of *filename*.NO.*ext* purely for cosmetic reasons.
