Title: Open Subtitles
Post by: geoptin2 on December 19, 2022, 02:53:30 am
Hello!
Please fix the "Use Subtitles" option. It never finds any English subs and when I click on the opensubtitles home page provided, I get a forbidden page! 4 screen shot will explain it better. The 4th screen shot is the CORRECT address for open subtitles.

Thanks, Yiorgos

Please, either fix the opensubtitles option or remove it. It doesn't work.
Thanks

I looked at your images and that seems like a local (Greek?) problem.

Hello!
Yes, it seems the Greek government has stopped access to the opensubtitles site. There is another open subtitles, though, that works: https://www.opensubtitles.com/en/home

There are multiple ways to fix it:

1. use a VPN
2. change your DNS server to 8.8.8.8 or 1.1.1.1 in your Router or in Windows
3. add this line to your c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file:
   172.64.103.24   opensubtitles.org   www.opensubtitles.org   api.opensubtitles.org

Method 2 is the easiest to unblock all sites blocked by your government.
