Here's an error message I get sometimes. Version installed is 3.1

[pahunt]

Well, I tested only with avi videos. External subtitles, srt format.

And what name does the srt file have. To check for existing subtitles I am looking for a file with exactly the same name as the video except with the different extension. Are yours named differently from that?

[pahunt]

Here's an error message I get sometimes. Version installed is 3.1

That error message means it's not finding subtitles for a particular file although I thought I was handling that scenario so that it wouldn't cause an error. I will have a look at the code this evening and see if I can work out what is going wrong.

American Pie - O Reencontro.avi

Whenever I run the video, the subtitles are being replaced.

The plug-in has stopped working for me the past couple of MC updates. Could it be something to do with abandoning MFC?

How do you know the subtitles are being replaced each time you play the video? Subtitle files with names like that should stop the plugin from trying to download them again, so I'm confused as to how that can be happening.

I guess you're talking about builds more recent than 18.0.78, if so I've no idea I'm afraid as that's the latest one I have access to. Hopefully once a non-MFC version is made public I will be able to track down any issues that are introduced.

[Fabricio]

How do you know the subtitles are being replaced each time you play the video? Subtitle files with names like that should stop the plugin from trying to download them again, so I'm confused as to how that can be happening.

For example: See the legend of American Pie - O Reencontro.

My subtitle, downloaded by me (I've saved in another folder not to be replaced), begins:

1
00:00:59,896 --> 00:01:01,438
Ele já dormiu?

When I run the movie, the subtitle is replaced. The text changes, see:

1
00:00:24,130 --> 00:00:28,109
[InSUBs]
Qualidade é InSUBstituível!

Do you understand? I also do not know because it changes the subtitle.

The plugin ignores the legend already downloaded and replace.

Thank you for your attention.

Fabricio, from Brazil.

[lepa]

Thanks for the great plugin.

Would it be possible to add priority to language as well?
I mean that if subs in my native language doesn't get hit then english subs will do just fine.

That's certainly something that's possible. I'll see what I can do.

[InflatableMouse]

That looks like a possibility, they have an API that looks pretty similar to Open Subtitles.

This was with regards to Podnapisi.net. Don't mean to sound impatient or anything but did you have a chance to look into that?

Thanks!

[Osho]

Excellent plug-in. I am already loving this!!

It worked flawlessly for many of the video files that I have. I did have various problems for many other files:

• For some files, I get an error saying Permission denied pointing to the disk location where the video file is located. I do have write access to that directory (running as an Admin account in Windows 8 Pro).
• For many files, I got an error saying "response contains boolean value where array expected [response : struct mapped to type OpenSubtitlesHeader : member data mapped to type OpenSubtitlesSubtitle[]]

Some requests for improving usability:

• I had over 1000 video files found when I searched for files without subtitles. I had to select each one manually - that took a long time. It would be great if multiple items could be selected.
• I would like to be able to select a video file and right-click on it and invoke the plugin on it to find subtitles. Or something similar to find subtitle for a file on user demand.

Thanks a lot,
Osho

[locust]

In the missing subtitles tab a select all checkbox would be nice

+1. It would be perfect. Also, it would be interesting function: enable / disable search automatically. Remember, I run the video, the plugin always search to replace my legend and subtitle

The plugin no longer fetches subtitles automatically for me when playing a movie on build .90 . I tried uninstalling the plugin and reinstalling without success. Any ideas?

[pahunt]

Hi all,

Sorry for the lack of updates but "real" work took over for the last few days unfortunately. I am aware that the plug-in no longer works in version 18.0.90 and I am sure this is MFC related but from what I've read those issues should be resolved shortly. Once that is done then I will tackle some of the new features that have been asked for.

Lol, i was just checking the thread for new replies. Talk about great minds thinking alike:P

It's ok, take your time! Real life is more important than a hobby project and for now i can fetch my subtitles through the plugin menu anyway. Thanks a lot for the hard work and all the hours that you've put into this and i'm patiently awaiting for an update!

[cuadedanh]

that is great but i cant download setup file,2shared notify file is invalid??? if possible,  add source http://subscene.com/ pls, thanks

[koshia]

Is anyone having jittery problem with the video when the subs are turned on?  Not sure if it's related to this plugin, but could use some advice if anyone has ran into this.  Subs that I download manually before this plugin was installed did not have this issue.

This plugin is awesome by the way!

This seems to be fixed in tonight's nightly build.

[pahunt]

Version 0.3.2 uploaded. See first post for details.

This release is just a couple of tidying up fixes while I work on some bigger changes. Also some people have had issues downloading so I am now hosting the setup.exe myself until I get a better solution.

[Ekpen]

Thanks. setup on my desktop now.

But:

0.3.3: Fixed problem that meant subtitles for a movie would be downloaded every time it was played even if it already had suitable subtitles.

Not working. I have the subtitle and the plugin replaces.
I am using MC 18.0.97.

Well that's odd as I found and reproduced the problem and then fixed it. I'll have an other look at it tonight though.

pahunt - This is a great plugin. It downloads and renames the subtitles fine. It saves me a lot of work. The issue I'm having is I'm watching TV recordings with commercials. The subtitles don't take that into account. Since cc is not supported this won't really work for me. After the commercial skip the subs are off by 3 minutes or so each time it skips a batch of commercials and it's cumulative...the 42 minute episode is about 60 minutes or so for my recording so you can imagine how far off they get toward the end.

Hi,

I'm not sure there's anything that can be done about this I'm afraid. The problem is that the subtitle files assume that the commercials have been removed, it would be impossible for them to do anything else really as each broadcast of a show would have different commercial break lengths.

[InflatableMouse]

Do you think its possible to add a secundary language to search for?

I'd like to search for dutch subtitles but if thats not found, fall back to english.

Thanks.

You're in luck You've caught me on a weekend when I have some free time that I'm going to use to do some work on the plug-in and so I'll see what I can do.

Thanks man, appreciate it. Looks good, I'll test it later tonight.

Your download link isn't working Paul.  Could you have a check?

Thanks.

[InflatableMouse]

Temporary download link for the latest version.

[ottomanen]

Awesome! I've missed this from xbmc...

Might I suggest a few improvements from my personal wishlist:
1. Some APIs support checking for subtitles by the files hash. This leads to better subtitles downloaded. Check the API for sublight, opensubtitles or such for more details. It's not hard to get the hash from c#, let me know if I can assist in any way.
2. Would be great if you could support multi-language. I prefer to watch stuff without subs, but some shows have dialogue that is hard to hear, so then subs are great. However, I have friends visiting that don't like english subs, so it would be nice if subs were downloaded for each language defined and appended to the subtitlefile, so that an English subtitle gets named <tv-show title>.eng.srt and a Norwegian <tv-show title>.nor.srt instead of downloading all as <title>.srt. Use ISO 639 country code abbreviations, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes for naming the files.
3. Re-download is sweet to be able to force, for specific language(s) or all defined
4. If no hash match could be made, but subs are available for download, it would be nice with a popup to let the user select what to download or cancel the download

That's about it for now, cool thing!

[pahunt]

Your download link isn't working Paul.  Could you have a check?

Thanks.

Apologies for that, although my FTP server was running, I had a been a bit over zealous when I tidied up my firewall rules Working again now and thanks to InflatableMouse for providing a link in the interim.

[InflatableMouse]

Every once in a while after I restart Media Center, I get the message that the the subtitle downloader plugin cannot be loaded. I need to reinstall it. I've not kept track of it whether its after an update of MC, so that could be the case.

I also have another request. Do you think it would be possible to invoke the plugin through a remote button press to force another download? I reckon about a quarter of the series I watch the wrong version is downloaded and I have to manually find another one.

Thanks!

[Fabricio]

For me dont working in MC 18 v.18.0.136.

Awesome plugin!
I have a bunch of files with a 'wrong' season in the filename - would it be possible to add a feature to override it somehow?

With "Get movie and TV info" I get a choice to override the searched for string, which is perfect. Something similar would rule

 Hi,

I would like to try your plugin, but the link is not working.

Thank you in advance for making the plugin available again.

Kind regards,

Jasper

[fodalweb]

Plugin sounds awesome! Can't wait to try it out, but the download link seems to be broken, ive tried 2 different FTP clients on 2 different machines.

Does this also work for DLNA libraries? I recently shifted my whole library to the network, just wanted to make sure this worked because it wasn't mentioned in your initial comments.

Thanks in advance!
