Some users prefer to keep all subtitle files in a separate folder rather than alongside their video files.
Use the Options dialog (Subtitles / Advanced page) to specify the alternative subtitle folder:

  1. Click Tools / Options to display the Options dialog and go to the Subtitles / Advanced page.
  2. Click the Browse button next to “Additional folder containing external subtitle files” and choose the folder.
  3. Click OK to save your changes.
  4. Run Maintain Library to update your Mezzmo library.

Subtitle files stored in the alternative folder must follow the same file naming strategy to be “paired” with the video file name. For example:

D:\mymovies\myvideo.avi - Video file
C:\mysubtitles\myvideo.srt - SubRip subtitle file
C:\mysubtitles\myvideo.fr.sub - Subtitle file written in French language

Note: Make sure the alternative folder with subtitles is always available for reading, especially when the folder exists on a removable hard drive.
