Yeah, I know this option. But it requires the subfile to have the exact same
name as the videofile which isn’t always the case. This is why I was searching
for a way to circumvent this to be able to just select video and subfile and
open them.

So either renaming the subfile or a custom script seem to be the solution for 
now.
