Summary0014140: Auto-Organize should be able to rename subtitle files
DescriptionGenerally subtitle files have the same filename as the associated video file. Thus if the user uses Auto-Organize (Files) to modify the video filename, MediaMonkey should have the facility to modify the associated subtitle files (a confirmation would be useful if done silently).
Steps To ReproducePerhaps Auto-Organize Files could show associated files along with the actual media files being organized.

- Movies, generally in a folder of own would show all related files per Movie file.
- TV, would group by Series (Series Art), Season# (Season Art) and Episode (subtitle files).
Music, would group by Album (Album Artwork) and Song (Lyrics file).
Podcast, per Subscription (Artwork).

Associated files with the same Filename as the file being organized would show suggested change (checkbox to disable) in Filename. Special care would need to be taken for Subtitle files as they often come in Filename.language.extension format in which case both language and extension would be ignored when comparing to video file.
TagsNo tags attached.

2. MMW should be able to rename one of detected subtitles (if multiple available) to destination filename same as video filename eg. Video: <filename>.mp4 Subtitle: <Filename>.srt reason for that is that some players use same filename to assign default subtitle and some are capable to recognize those with <filename>.<lng>.srt mask or even load all subtitle in folder.

Note: If added in case of multiple subtitles are detected in folder user should be presented with choice. so possibly this should be added as feature while video is playing only and batch should only rename those follow <filename>.<lng>.srt mask
