Plezy's device profile declares every subtitle format with `Method: External`, so Jellyfin answers PlaybackInfo with `DeliveryMethod: External` and a `DeliveryUrl` even for streams embedded in a direct-played container. Direct play never fetches those URLs, but the rows kept the delivery URL as `MediaSubtitleTrack.key`, and keyed rows only match a native track loaded from the same URL. No embedded track could satisfy that, so `selectSubtitleTrack` reported "still pending" forever: playback started with subtitles off and logged the five- and thirty-second waits, and the server's default subtitle had to be picked by hand on every item. Restrict sidecar identity to the rows an open actually fetched as sidecars. A row that stays in the container loses `key` and `usesExternalDelivery` and matches on metadata again; genuine `IsExternal` files keep theirs, and remuxed or transcoded renditions still resolve their sidecars by URL. Also declare every subtitle format Embed-first so a direct-played container reports embedded delivery in the first place, and make the pending contract match its purpose on every backend. The complete-catalog escape is no longer Plex-only, so a Jellyfin row the native player has not produced keeps the pass pending instead of committing an unrelated default and retiring the listener that was waiting for the real track. A source id absent from the catalog no longer defers a decision that can never change, and the thirty-second deadline resolves from what has arrived instead of re-deriving the same deferral and applying nothing. close #1696
