Jellyfin has a builtin subtitle search and download tool I’m pretty sure. I know I’ve done it right from jellyfin, and I don’t think I’ve installed any plugin for that…
oh, you didn’t have to create an opensubtitles account and set it up on your server with the plugin? Someone told me about this like a day ago. Kinda weird this would even exist if there is robust subtitle support natively now. https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server/plugins/open-subtitles/
A year ago I was unable to source subtitles unless I provided them.
My wife is an immigrant and some of her family doesn’t speak any English really, so subtitle support is of utmost importance for our household. Not just English subtitles either.
There’s definitely no subtitle sourcing by default. You can select from whatever subtitles are embedded or might be in the folder of the thing, but that’s it.
It’s rough how many things are missing though. There’s no way to adjust subtitle offset. I can’t find the file name or path of a media file in the app on my fire cube. Multiple versions of files show up as duplicates (I have 480p, 1080p, and 4k copies of some media. I would expect it to give me a selection when I go to open said media between the versions, but instead it shows the same media multiple times.)
Don’t get me wrong, for the price it can’t be beat. I wouldn’t advise anybody to go with plex today given their trend and sudden price increase for lifetime (limited time offer? lifetime must be ending soon! Hellgate London anyone?)

For kicks yesterday I installed jellyfin on a proxmox host with this script: https://community-scripts.org/categories?category=media-and-streaming&preview=jellyfin
