### 4/5 — Good but need fix

*2026-08-08, version 6.1.6*

Choose subtitle language is frustrating
App setting has dual subtitle but can’t use both from online search
Consider add option to search metadata with opensubtitle it’s much easier 
Now search subtitle is messy and all languages together and even unrelated subtitle will show up, thank you
