[opensuse] MythTV - hiding files?
I am using MythTV to manage my video collection. I have one video that has subtitles in srt format. To get MPlayer to pickup on the srt file I have to use the "Unique Player Command line and enter the line: mplayer -fs -zoom -quiet -vo xv %s -sub <path>/subtitlefile.srt This works, but only if the subtitle file is in the same directory as the video file. If the subtitle file is located anywhere else on the filesystem, then MPlayer cannot pick up on it... even if the path is explicitly stated in the -sub option. I can live with this... but since the subtitle file is located in the same directory as the video file, then it lands in the database, and shows up when you browse the videos. This I don't want. I have tried the toggle browseable option but this has no effect on removing the srt file from the video gallery. Does anyone know how to either convince MPlayer (in MythTV) to pick up on the srt from another directory? or how to flag a specific file in the movie directory as not visible when browsing the videos?

OK, took a bit, but I accidentally stumbled on how to hide videos... Set the Toggle Browseable in the Video Manager, and then in the Video Gallery, press 'f' and set the filter to 'Yes'. This will show all video except those with the Toggle Browseable option set to 'No'. So this works... Still doesn't answer the question as to why MPlayer in MythTV cannot load the subtitles from another directory.
