Trying to extract the Korean subtitles from Netflix Korea (English subs work fine) and there are multiple ?0= lines on the network tab in chrome. No search results for dfxp in Firefox either. Any workaround?

dienhosp3 commented 7 years ago

Well I think Netflix's fonts don't support Korea Character, so they made Korean subtitles from PNG file to make sure it can be displayed well -> It cannot be one file with the name start with ?o=

I meant multiple lines containing those characters

capture

Is there any solution to this? Would love to use the subtitles as a teaching aid as it's pretty hard to find decent Korean subs as seperate files.

isaacbernat commented 7 years ago

@haralla, without more information I can't tell. Could you send me some samples of those files?

BTW, if @dienhosp3 suspicions are correct and subtitles are encoded as images, I am afraid you will have to look for another solution, as converting images to .srt is beyond the scope of this little python script.

haralla commented 7 years ago

Yeah I did some looking at they are loaded as png images. Guess I am out of luck then?

isaacbernat commented 7 years ago

Yes, I am sorry. Dealing with images is a much more complex problem...

@haralla did you ever figure out this issue?
