[opensuse] MythTV - hiding files?



I am using MythTV to manage my video collection. I have one video
that has subtitles in srt format. To get MPlayer to pickup on the srt
file I have to use the "Unique Player Command line and enter the line:
mplayer -fs -zoom -quiet -vo xv %s -sub <path>/subtitlefile.srt

This works, but only if the subtitle file is in the same directory as
the video file. If the subtitle file is located anywhere else on the
filesystem, then MPlayer cannot pick up on it... even if the path is
explicitly stated in the -sub option.

I can live with this... but since the subtitle file is located in the
same directory as the video file, then it lands in the database, and
shows up when you browse the videos. This I don't want.

I have tried the toggle browseable option but this has no effect on
removing the srt file from the video gallery.

Does anyone know how to either convince MPlayer (in MythTV) to pick up
on the srt from another directory? or how to flag a specific file in
the movie directory as not visible when browsing the videos?
