I haven't tried this addon yet but is there an option to choose what
subtitles you want included?

For instance, in Denmark we often prefer english language with danish
subtitles if available, even to danish speech.
Which reminds me that the spoken language ought to be selectable also,
if it is not already.

How about it?
