files of a movie or episode.
The easiest way to achieve a seamless movie experience is to concatenate the two
movie files.
This can be done with [ffmpeg](./linux/ffmpeg.md#concatenate-multiple-video-files-with-matching-audio-tracks).
### Naming Movies, multiple movie versions and extras
This can be done with
[ffmpeg](./linux/ffmpeg.md#concatenate-multiple-video-files-with-matching-audio-tracks).
### Naming Subtitles of movies or tv shows
Subtitles can be written into video files.
If that is the case an additional naming of the file is not needed.
This section especially targets `.srt` files but the naming conventions
translate to other file types aswell.
Files containing subtitles are named the same as the video file they relate to
The only difference is the file extension.
After the name of the file the language of the subtitles is indicated by the
[two-letter country code](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2),
for example `.en` for english.
After that `.forced` can be added, if the subtitles are forced.
Lastly the file extension `.srt` is appended.
The complete subtitle file look like this:
`movie_(1234)_-_brd_uu.en.forced.srt`.
