CR Settings Interface
Dub Language
Select the audio languages to be downloaded using the dropdown menu.
Hardsubs Language
Choose the language for hard subtitles. This setting overrides the soft subtitle selection. Hardsubs are usually only available for ja-JP dub.
Hard subtitles (hardsubs) are subtitles permanently embedded into a video file, meaning they are always visible and cannot be turned off or edited. This ensures universal compatibility across all devices and media players but lacks flexibility for customization or removal.
Softsubs Language

This works if the main difference is the intro and not if there are differences throughout the episode.

This allows you to leverage hardware acceleration to potentially speed up the sync process, depending on your system capabilities.

- Encoding: The Encoding option allows you to select an encoding preset or create a custom preset. This preset is used to encode the downloaded video, which can help reduce the file size.
