Allow use of TED subtitles #35

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
TED offers a number of subtitles for every talk. Right now the plugin does
not allow you to select any of them.

Ideally the plugin settings would allow you to specify a "default" subtitle
and use XBMC audio menu "Search for subtitles" option control or any other
solution to change the subtitle language between the ones available for
that particular TED talk.

The functionality of the "Default subtitle" setting might be as follows:

Unset (by default) -- No subtitle shown 
Set to Language X  -- TED plugin will show the video with the corresponding
language subtitle if present.
If Language X not present by default show a dialog box with available
subtitles for the talk so the user can choose a fallback one or "escape"
and watch the video without subtitles.

In any case the "Search/Select" subtitles will always be available during
video playback.

Current development is taking place at
https://github.com/moreginger/xbmc-plugin.video.ted.talks

Funnily enough this issue was filed a couple of days ago as 
https://github.com/moreginger/xbmc-plugin.video.ted.talks/issues/10

I don't know exactly how feasible it is but it seems technically possible, and 
is obviously important. I'm hoping to work on it soon.
