Why ?

OpenSubtitle leech contents from addic7ed community and add ads.
They propose to register as VIP member to remove ads.

How ?

If they read contents from their website, we could to.
There are repo on github.

If you are looking for others providers, there is a thread about this in PopcornTime's forum.

This issue is kind of relative to issue #88.

Thank you.

The VLsub extension does not start in VLC 1.1.9 (Ubuntu 11.04).

Here is the log of the error, hope it helps:

The extension open only when there's no video running. When a video is running, the extension don't open.

Tested on Windows 7 Ultimate, with VLC 2.1.3.

OS X Yosemite 10.10.2
VLC 2.2

File read failed:
VLC could not open the file "/media/Storage/Profile/loostro/file:///home/loostro/SomeMovie/SomeMovie.mpl" (No such file or directory).
Your input cannot be opened:
VLC program cannot open MRL 'file:///media/Storage/Profile/loostro/file%3A///home/loostro/SomeMovie/SomeMovie.mpl'. Details in error log.

Note: Actual error messages may be diffrent - I had to translate them from Polish.

I have a "Storage" drive mounted under /media/Storage where I keep all my data, including the home directory (in /media/Storage/Profile/loostro).

I have /home symlinked to /media/Storage/Profile. It seem's thats the cause of the problem.

Hello, im doing a modification because i want to select the language code for the file in iso-639-1 or iso-639-3. For example i need to use the extension .es.srt instead of .spa.srt.

That is done and working, my problem is when I reopen the configuration, the displayed option is always the first.

Anyone can help me? I'm sure that it is a stupid thing what is missing me.

Hi,
I got a bug in vlsub 0.9.10.
i use VLC 2.0.8 x64 on Win8.1
the error is as follow:
File reading failed:
VLC could not open the file "Data\Media\Videos\Sherlock.3x03.HDTV_x264-FoV.srt.gz". (Bad file descriptor)

the subtitle is succesfully downloaded and it exists in the directory as a .gz archive by the name: Sherlock.3x03.HDTV_x264-FoV.srt.gz
but it seems like the subtitle is failed to be extracted from the .gz archive, because the srt file is created but it's empty (0 byte).

is this a new bug?
because i'd been using vlsub on my old pc and it runs without this bug.

Please help :)

Thanks!

Hello,

In attachment you will find 4 screenshots of the interface after a search.
Everytime I click on search button, the window grow with "invisible item"

OS: MacosX Lion latest update
Step to reproduce: Clisk on "search by ash" button

Hey,
VLSUB is just showing the list of subtitles, but on pressing the download button, it does not download it. It was working fine a few days back. Please advice. Since it was not working with the currrent version of VLC, I am using VLC 2.0.2

Could be very useful

Hi, Im using Windows 7 Pro x86, I've downloaded VLC 2.0.8 and after installation there is no extensions submenu, only the name VLSub 0.9.10.When I try to navigate to extensions, nothing appears. Only the name VLSUB 0.9.10 is there.The name of extension appears when a movie is opened, but unfortunately there is no library in user's folder.
Thanks for your help

I am using the latest version of vlsub and Linux Fedora OS. The log file reports the following:

Hello, I'm using VLC 2.0.8 (so as to avoid the bug #28), on Ubuntu GNOME Remix 12.10 x64.
The extension opens properly, but when I try to do a hash or a normal search, it hangs and then a pop-up appears saying "Extension not responding! Extension 'VLsub 0.9.10 ' does not respond. Do you want to kill it now?" with a progress bar stuck at 0%. Here's a screenshot :

If I wait 10-15 seconds, this window disappears and I get the results from the search. Same error message appears when I'm changing the settings. When I try to click "Close" to close the extension window, it doesn't work and I have to hit the cross in top-right corner. Then after the window"s already closed, the same "Extension not responding" window pops up, and hence I click "Yes" for killing it (even though no extension window is apparent anymore).

Tell me if you need more info. Nothing appears in VLC Message dialog (level 0), but it seems to be badly interacting with VLC itself, since opening VLC menus while the extension is hanging makes the whole program hangs.
Thanks a lot for your excellent extension, which provides a much needed feature in VLC.

I came across this little error while testing on Windows on a build from the latest source:

I think vlc.deactivate() is calling the extension's deactivate() method, which would explain the duplicate "Bye bye!" message.

Hi guys, and first, thanks for this awesome plugin!

Sometimes .srt files are not encoded to UTF-8, and when you have accents, that is the result... :

( a ? instead of special characters like accents)

To fix it, you can modify your encoding preferences in VLC, or manually convert the .srt file to UTF-8 (with notepad for example).
But these solutions are not fast and simple.

In html, you can force encoding with a meta, like <meta charset="utf-8">...

But, is there a way to force reading .srt files in UTF-8?
And if not, a way to convert them?

Hello, i don't know how to program in Lua but i'm studying the code because i want to avoid the automatic resize of the dialog.

When i look for i find some functions that restarts the size of the dialog, for example:

mainlist:clear()
mainlist:add_value(...
input_table["message"]:set_text(str)

That is a Lua behavior or it is by the VLC?
If it's a VLC behavior, where is that code to look?
It's posible to set a size by the user and resize automatically after each call of these functions to resize to the selected user size for dialog?

Hi
For some weird reason, VLSub stopped working correctly since today.

I am using Crunchbang (Debian Based Linux Distro) and i am running a self built vlc 2.0.8 version of vlc.

I traced down the error through the console:

lua generic warning: Error while running script /home/gregkwaste/.local/share/vlc/lua/extensions/vlsub.lua, function (null)(): ...gregkwaste/.local/share/vlc/lua/extensions/vlsub.lua:1693: bad argument #1 to 'gmatch' (string expected, got nil)

This prevents the extension to successfully download and load the subtitle. I click Download Subtitle but the progress bar never moves on. The other modes work as they should.

I tried the latest version of the script posted in the master branch here. The result was the same.

I hope you can find a solution ^^

Hi,

I have just downloaded new version of the script and it won't work anymore for me. I am using VLC 2.0.8 in Windows 7 64.

The problem is that VLsub starts downloading but the progress bar stucks at the end forever. I checked the folder. There are 2 files, file.tar.gz and file.srt. Srt is empty. Tar.gz is corrupted.

The log output: http://pastebin.com/fqK5AHRi

I see the error, it says "not a valid zip archive".

I take advantange of this problem to congratulate you for this wonderful project! Many thanks!

Doesn't work while streaming video. For example, with popcorntime.io
In the activate() function I just added the "and" condition and it seems to work

 if vlc.input.item() and vlc.input.item() ~= "" then
    openSub.getFileInfo()
    openSub.getMovieInfo()
  end

Not critical at all, but pretty easy to fix:

When the user has no extensions installed, the "extensions" folder may not exist. In such case, the installer fails.

In my VLC, the extension won't work. The messages log at -vvv verbose level shows:

I am using vlc 2.0.7 with vlsub from git on a Linux system and experience the following problem:

I open a playlist and start the first movie, open vlsub, download the subs for the movie, then skip to the next movie (without closing the vlsub window).
The vlsub window still contains the data from the first movie, cannot be closed or does not respond in any way, just like vlc does now.

To prevent this, I have to close the vlsub window before changing to the next movie from the playlist, open the window again and so on.

It would be nice if the window reinitialized itself after changing the video.

If the VLSub working directory is set to the same path as where the locale folder containing the translation files are then there will be two of each language listed in the Intarface language dropdown menu.

e.g.
type( parse_xml("<os_password></os_password>").os_password ) == 'table'

So interface_config() crashes in line 407 (if config has been saved having username and password emtpy)

input_table['os_username'] = dlg:add_text_input(openSub.option.os_username or "", 2, 7, 2, 1)

Hi, How about add subscene with opensubtitles.

[0x7f7a840bc648] lua generic debug: Creating dialog 'VLSub 0.9: Configuration'
[0x7f7a840bc648] lua generic warning: Error while running script /usr/lib/vlc/lua/extensions/vlsub.lua, function (null)(): /usr/lib/vlc/lua/extensions/vlsub.lua:407: dialog:add_text_input usage: (text = nil)
[0x25dab28] qt4 interface debug: Creating a new dialog: 'VLSub 0.9: Configuration'

This prevents the dialog to show the input_text for username, doesn't show at all password label and input_text, and blanks all the selectors.

How to reproduce :
-install vlsub in its place, in /usr/lib/vlc/lua/extensions/
-remove ~/.local/share/vlc (as if you had never launched vlc, which was my case)
-start vlc
-launch vlsub
-go to configuration of vlsub
-try to save -> error : can't fount (typo here, by the way) a suitable path to save config, please set it manually
-quit vlc
-start vlc, vlsub, configuration, vlsub
-save -> no error (note : I did not change any configuration option since the start of debug), default elements are filled, including VLSub working directory
-quit vlc
-start vlc, vlsub, configuration => windows not showing at the right place, nothing filled EXCEPT VLSub working directory, error in the terminal as indicated at the top of the issue

In ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/extensions/userdata/vlsub/vlsub_conf.xml, os_username and os_password do not contain anything

As one can expect, filling os_username in ~/.local/share/vls/lua/extensions/userdata/vlsub/ move the error to line 409, filling os_password and os_username resolves the bug.

as a side note, wouldn't it be possible to fill with '*' the input box of the password ?

Best regards,

Could there be an update that allows you to search for subtitles based on name/season/episode if the video comes from Popcorn Time/any network stream?

I copied the vlsub file here:
C:\Program Files (x86)\VLC\lua\extensions
after creating the extensions folder myself, it doesn't exist in VLC 2.0.7. vlsub doesn't show in the View menu.

The install instructions specify the "lua\extensions" folder. Is it still applicable to VLC 2.0.7?

I have vlsub 0.11 that has been modified to work behind a proxy. It used to work earlier, but now it seems to be broken.

The "search from hash" feature works fine - it displays the results, but when I try to download a subtitle, I get a "Server not responding" error. I'm not familiar with lua, but there seems to be some problem with the get(url) call in dump_zip.

Here is my modified get function:

function get(url)
        local host, path = parse_url(url)
        local header = {
                --"GET "..path.." HTTP/1.1", 
                "GET http://"..host..path.." HTTP/1.1", 
                "Host: "..host, 
                "User-Agent: "..openSub.conf.userAgentHTTP,
                "",  
                ""
        }
        local request = table.concat(header, "\r\n")

        local response
        local status, responseStr = http_req("proxy.iiit.ac.in", 8080, request)

        if status == 200 then 
                return response
        else
                return false, status, response
        end
end

I tried to manually intercept and send the request using telnet and it worked perfectly.

I used wireshark to read the response packet to vlsub and that too begins with HTTP/1.0 200 OK\r\n. I then thought that the if condition in dump_zip that sets the error code was being erroneously triggered, so I commented it out, but then I get a srt.gz file of 0 bytes in my video folder and the addon hangs.

Let me repeat two things -

1. I don't know lua well enough to log the values of status andresponseStr in get function.
2. The search works perfectly fine behind the proxy. It's only the download that doesn't work.

Any help here would be great. Thanks. :)

EDIT - using VLC media player 3.0.0-git Vetinari (revision 2.2.0~~git20140801+r57492+123~ubuntu14.04.1) on Linux Mint 17

I can't search any subtitle. It says "Error: code '401 Unauthorized' (200)"

I'm using 0.9.12 in VLC 2.2 in MacOSX, i can search and download subtitles with no problems, but when I click to close the vlsub windows all VLC hangs, I need to force close and reopen (the subs was downloaded correctly

Thanks for the excellent work! Great piece of software.

This is request for enhancement to add support for batch mode: Point vlsub to a directory, for every file search by hash, if no matches found, search by name, either way download the first hit. Very useful if you have hundreds of episodes :)

When updated to the new VLC version 2.1.1, VLsub stopped working.
When click on VLC->Extensions->VLsub 0.9.10 in menu bar, nothing happens.

Hello,

This is not really an issue but really a request. I have a subtitle directory in each of directories containing videos. So, if I was to download subtitles for a running video, I’d like it to go into the subtitle directory. Is there a way to have such a behaviour in your plugin ?

Steps to reproduce:

1. Remove ~/.cache/vlc/
2. Start vlc and try to downlad a subtitle
3. Subtitle couldn't get downloaded

Is it possible to check if the cache dir exists and if not create a new one before the download is started ?

It doesn't work on my Mac. It find the subtitles but it doesn't download or displays it. More specifically:

• the subtitle is not displayed in the video
• the subtitle file is not saved in the same folder of the video file
• the link to download it appears in the dialog, but clicking on it gives no results.

My system configuration:
Mac Mini
OS X Yosemite 10.10
VLC Version 3.0.0-git Vetinari (Intel 64bit)

VLC 2.1.2
VLsub 0.9.10
In the menu view it shows that the extension is loaded, but when I click on it it doesn't do anything. Only the first time something opened voor a microsecond and immedietly closed.

VLC reports "lua error: Could not activate extension!" when you click on the vlsub option from view menu.

From verbose mode
