TV4.se - The webvtt subtitle should check if the file exists before starting to downloading #966

If a subtitle already exists it needs to do this check before it downloads it. Now it sometimes take more than a minute to download a subtitle in the webvtt format . It is totally waste of time to wait for the subtitle to be downloaded if its already exists. When running with -A it can take a very long time.

If regular srt subtitles downloads before it check the file name, maybe this should be changed too?

Any ETA on this? When using -A it takes forever to wait for every subtitle file to be downloaded before it checks if the file already exists :(
