Greetings.

I'm trying to make my xbmc loads by default Spanish subtitles.

My file scheme is:
- filmname.avi
- filmname.Chinese.srt
- filmname.English.srt
- filmname.Spanish.srt

XBMC has international default audio & subtitles set to spanish, but when I play video it loads first srt (chinese in this case, because it starts wit "c").
I can change it manually but I'd like to know if it can be loaded automatically according to my international settings.

Maybe I've not read anything about how to do it but I've been reading information for 2 days and I can't make it work.

I know I can name subtitles like:
- filmname.1Spanish.srt
- filmname.Chinese.srt
- filmname.English.srt

But I suppose there is another option, because XBMC wiki suggest to use language name in subtitle file (http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=Subtitles#Us..._subtitles)

I hope you can help me.

Regards.

For XBMC to know what language it is, I believe you need to use the abbreviation, not the complete language.
For English I know it´s "en", so for example 'filmname.en.srt'.

I think XBMC use ISO-639, if so spanish should be "es".

Come to think of it though, I am not entirely certain that XBMC supports preferred language when it comes to external subtitles, I never tested it.
But it´s easy to test.

Same result

I have tested this

Option 1:
- filmname.Chinese.srt
- filmname.English.srt
- filmname.Spanish.srt

Option 2:
- filmname.chi.srt
- filmname.eng.srt
- filmname.spa.srt

Option 3:
- filmname.zh.srt
- filmname.en.srt
- filmname.es.srt

Same results: subtitled showed is not the default language
More suggestions?
