playlist - enable subtitle as default for non-english movies - madmax2 - 2015-03-29

Hi

I created a smart playlist to show non-english language movies
but I would like to enable subtitle (by default) for all those movies in this playlist?

How can I do this without enabling subtitles by for all other movies that are in english as well...

thanks

but is there a way to set that addon so that

subtitle gets turn on when audio language is not english?

It seems like with the service addon, you need to set it up for each language, which could be cumbersome

Those kinds of subs are known as "forced subs". A comment from Ace from last year said it doesn't currently work, because the add-on can't read the forced flag on the forced subtitle track, but it is on his to-do list: http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=153783&pid=1595644#pid1595644
