How to Format Subtitles for Tv SHOW?

[StarNugget]

I created a menu where you could select the subtitles On or OFF. In total there are 10 Episodes, All 10 are in one playlist for the "Play" feature, the episodes are individually put in playlist to ensure that when selected in the episode selection menu and the video ends, it will go to the episode selection menu. I went into the Action Matrix, for the "Off" Button's state of enter, I had set the action of "Set sub: Feature (off), when testing it in the simulation has no red error appear in the log. But when I had the multi-action on having : ""Set sub: Episode 1 (off),Set sub: Episode 2 (off), etc. A red error appeared "⚠ Movie “Episode 10” is virtual - select subtitle command ignored (State: adding button handlers for main menu “Settings BASE”) " I understand that the Movie file has the virtual setting toggled on. But I don't understand how the Playlist containing all the episodes work, but not when they are individual.

1. When you create a movie or playlist it is automatically added to the group. When you switch audio/subtitles - you switch it for the whole group.
2. If you added movie to the playlist and don't want to use this particular movie without this playlist - just mark it as Virtual and forget about it. Don't change its audio/subtitles, don't try to play it. Audio/subtitles are changed for the playlist.

I'm a but confused on your explanation. All 10 Episodes are in a "Play All" playlist. And also, individual playlist.So in short, there is a Episode 1 playlist, Episode 2 playlist, etc. The individual episode playlist was for the episode selection menu. In the project tree's movie section, episodes 1-10 are clicked virtual. I've read that the virtual toggle is for playlist in the help guide. I understood when I switch the subtitles off for the feature playlist, it disabled the subtitles for all the episodes in that playlist, but why doesn't it work on the individual playlist?

To play a movie directly - you don't need to create a playlist - you can play it directly (but disable Virtual).
You can assign the same group to all movies and Play All. In that case changing audio/subtitles for the group will change audio/subtitles for all of them.
If your virtual movie and its playlist use the same group - it will show this warning - ignore it (will be removed in the next version).

*Gonna do numbers for convenience/easier*
1. The reason I hadn't play the movie directly is due to the end action. I was afraid for instance when If had the end action of " Menu: Episode Selection 1 BASE (Episode 1) on Episode 1 movie. Then when the "Play All" playlist was played then once episode 1 ended , it would jump to the episode selection.
2. I'm a bit confused on the virtual aspect, Episodes 1-10 are individual movies on the project tree. If I wish to have a "Play All" playlist those movies must be virtual. Yet, in order to play them directly I need to disable it.
3. Just to confirm "Episode 2 ” is virtual - select subtitle command ignored (State: adding button handlers for main menu “Settings BASE”)" is to be ignored? I made sure all the episodes movies/"Play All" playlist are in the same group. Checked the simulation and received these types of warnings.

In terms of real BD:
- Movie creates clip and playlist for this clip. Player plays playlists - not clips.
- Virtual means - only clip will be created.
- When you're creating a Playlist in BDS - it just creates a playlist (in terms of BD) and adds the appropriate clips to this playlist.
Thus, Movie and Playlist (in terms of BDS) are independent. They just share the same clip, but playlists are independent.
