Save subs in a different directory? #185

Would you be able to implement an option (or show where to change in the code) to save downloaded subtitles in a different directory? Currently, the subtitle is downloaded to the same directory as the video file. Thank you.

You have to change the variable "target" in the function "download_subtitles" at line 1802 : https://github.com/exebetche/vlsub/blob/master/vlsub.lua#L1802

Thanks. I changed it to

local target = "C:\\subtitles\\"..subfileName

This works if the video file is extracted, ie not inside an archive. If the video is inside an archive, vlsub does not load. Can you direct me where to change the code, or is pulling subtitles for an archive more involved? The current behavior is place the subtitle in the same directory as the archived files.

vlsub is now part of vlc. How can I do it from vlc?
