Full Version: Forced Subtitles

I have followed the naming convention for subtitle files but can't get the correct description to appear on screen.

When I have a film with full or forced subtitles, I have named the files:

[film].en.srt
[film].en.forced.srt

When watching the film and choosing which subtitle file to use, they appear on screen as English - (External) (1/2) and (2/2).

I don't know which is which without trying both.

Is there any way to change this? Not a major hassle but may as well use a solution if there is one.
We could add the flags, meanwhile name the forced one [film].en.forced.forced.srt or any other name behind the first forced. Not sure atm if the second forced is a valid name.
