Add option to fix forced subtitles handling in PMS #293

Open pannal opened 4 years ago

GHI (If applicable): #

Description:

The PMS has a long standing issue, that it pre-selects forced subtitles over full subtitles. I've reported that ages ago and it hasn't been fixed since. The PMS should have an option to disable this behaviour.

It's arguably wrong for a client to fix this; but as an option that's off by default, this is IMHO OK.

When there is a media file with both forced and normal subtitles for the same language and the user hasn't explicitly selected the forced one, select the non-forced one by default (external have precedence over embedded, to keep the same behaviour as the PMS).
