[Feature Request] Option to download subtitles #16

Open sr105 opened 11 years ago

sr105 commented 11 years ago

I would much prefer to have ViMediaManager download subtitles for movies/shows than Boxee. Since I'd eventually like VMM to rename files/folders for me, this would seem to be necessary. It would be nice if it worked like Boxee except unlike Boxee it would only show you your language and perhaps just default to the first one that was e.g., "English ." Although, it could present a dialog with the list of found subtitles and could allow you to preview them by saving the file and opening the movie with the default player. Then, the user could check the subtitles. Thanks!

It's on my list to add this, probably about as soon as i find out how. ;)

Take a look at the source code of subliminal. Subliminal has some excellent support for the most common subtitle sites.

A link to the source may be handy next time, in case I can't find the right 'Subliminal'. ;) I'm guessing it's this one?: https://github.com/Diaoul/subliminal

I am sorry ;). Bit of a generic application title ;).

Yes that's the one. It's written in Python, I don't know if you are familiair with Python but you could take a look at the matching logic and which API's it uses.

It's a command line application. You could consider using a compiled version of it off course. The author is very helpful (he's one of the maintainers of the SynoCommunity repository).
