Downloaded subtitle format

Recommended Posts

According to wiki https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Wiki/wiki/Subtitles supported subtitle formats are:

 

  • ass
  • srt
  • ssa
  • sub/idx
  • vtt

 

Why then are the plugins (I have OpenSubtitles, Addic7ed and Podnapisi activated) sometimes downloading subtitles in tmp, mpl or txt format? Does anyone know of a script that can go through my libraries and convert those automatically?

That's just the format that they have. I didn't realize they were downloading in those formats though. What downloaded downloaded those, do you know?

Yes, upon further examination it seems OpenSubtitles plugin downloads anything it can get its hand on, and the other two download nothing at all.

Yes however the format is different from srt ie.

[2][38]text1
[41][72]text2
[73][97]text3
[107][137]text4
[139][175]text5

my guess would be those are frame numbers.

Ok thanks. I'm sure ffmpeg can handle converting that to whatever we need on the fly. I'll make sure the server recognizes the .mpl extension for subtitles.

Correct, the server, is currently not looking for .mpl files. this will need to be added.
