Not downloading subtitles for ITV programmes #393

Closed OldTrout closed 2 years ago

OldTrout commented 2 years ago

GiA 1.22.1 OSX 10.14.6 Mojave (I still have some 32bit apps.) No web proxy Tried downloading all episodes of "The Ipcress File". All downloaded OK BUT without subtitles.

Subtitles OK with BBC programmes.

Downloaded The Ipcress File today -- the subtitles files were there, and were merged with the video files. ITV are often sloppy, and forget uploading the subtitle files, until a day or two after the video files.

ps GiA failed downloading Episode 2 repeatedly, downloaded it with Downie instead, merging the subtitle file manually with Subler.

Hi Hugo, Thanks for reply. I forced a cache reload and tried again. Still no subtitles. Episode 2 is not listed. I found before that if I brought up episode 2 on ITV Hub, set it playing with subtitles and then instructed GiA to get current web page it downloaded OK but again no subtitles. Still puzzled! John

Not puzzled any more. The error is mine. It is downloading embedded subtitles but using VLC as my player I have to turn them on a different way.

Thanks guys. John
