These scripts provide automatic connection of external subtitles and audio files using the WebDAV protocol. The connection is explicit due to the specified folders on the WebDAV server.
ℹ️ Note: Due to MPV's limitations in searching files over HTTP, these scripts were created to facilitate video playback on Android/iPhone devices. However, they also work perfectly on Linux/Windows systems.
Add the following to your mpv.conf:
# Audio file settings
audio-file-paths = RUS Sound: Rus Sound: RUS Sounds: Rus Sounds: Sound Rus: Sounds Rus
audio-file-auto = fuzzy
# Subtitle settings
sub-file-paths = RUS Subs: Rus Subs: SUBS: Subs: subs: Sub: Rus Sub
sub-auto = fuzzy
sid = no
# Script paths (customize these paths as needed)
script = /storage/emulated/0/Android/media/is.xyz.mpv/AudioWebDAV.lua
script = /storage/emulated/0/Android/media/is.xyz.mpv/SubWebDAV.lua-
