Describe the problem to be solved
subtitles/captions have no "metadata": only their corresponding language is stored.
This implies limitations:
- Can't tell whether a given language has been done manually or resulted from transcription/auto-generation
- Can't define which one is the original vs translations (derivated/translated from the original or not)
When dealing with hundreds of videos/subtitles (some are original, others transcribed, other translated and/or translated from a transcription), it becomes difficult to order/prioritize which ones must be associated/updated for a given video.
Describe the solution you would like
I wish this kind of metadata could be added to subtitles model and the API updated in consequence.
A multi-audio stream perspective could help tackling this problem in a future-proof way.
