ok, my function for parsing releasenames, filenames looks like this: Code: //check if string contains some of: /* 720p 1080p 2160p HDTV BluRay HDDVD BD5 BD9 BDRIP BRRIP */ return preg_match('/720p|1080p|2160p|HDTV|Blu.?Ray|HD.?DVD|BD5|BD9|BD.?RIP|BR.?RIP/i', $string) ? 1 : 0; I think it is ok from b...

I thought keeping "BDRip" would have been probable, no? What about blu-ray rips, they keep the resolution, well at least high enough to be classed as "HD"? Or did you mean, just to keep it simple for the processing programme and not to mention any TV series/Movie extension names ...

I have just noticed when uploading for series subtitles, even though I didn't select the HD icon, It's still tagging the subtitle as HD? So can you not do something, so it just automatically tags, 720p-1080i-1080p-BDRip movies by it self? So the feature could be turned off and tagging done automatic...

NEW HD SYMBOL

The following is a message from an esteem colleauge. "I noticed that many 350MB xvid episodes have the HD logo now. What exactly does it mean then? They are recorded from HDTV, but they are downsized to low-res. I would suggest using "HD" only for HD content, i.e. 720p or 1080i/p beca...

You don’t need to apologise, what for? Differential in opinion is a good thing, I welcome it. You learn new points and investigate new variables, that before you probably didn’t think were possible. Adversary… in layman terms, it was meant in a more sarcastic way than anything else: different logic,...

The reason I suggested the said programme is so credits don’t have to be displayed. I got the idea from rogard. I just thought it could be some kind of quality insurance seal. I will not agree with you and will voice my opinion if your opinion contradicts mine or vice versa (That’s how it should be)...

I just uploaded an edited version there a while ago and it wasn’t there later. Was it replaced by a better version? I doubt it. I think they just keep the “good enough” versions, not necessarily the best. You mentioned if they go through each subtitle individually? Is that even feasible? I think you...

“We can't sit in our ivory towers in the clouds at 10.000ft above ground and decide about the common world of subtitles. Even admins cannot rule anything and make it happen. The subbers make the subs, so we need to give them a reason to do an even better job. If that involves badges, high score lis...

Liar :cry: Seriously I think you're being an optimist. These people do exist. Usually one knows another and a like a pack of wolves they keep coming back to cast a bad spell. It is a good idea if it wasn't for such people, but unfortunately flawed in my opinion. goodluck in setting it up over at you...

I asked for your permission using your subtitles and editing them? mainly supernatural? anyway I think TVS system is good to a certain extent, but otherwise it's flawed. You can go there and pick any subtitle link that you fancy and just vote. You don't even have to register to be able to do so. In ...

Eduo, in regards to your comment: people saying its “horrible, horrible”. Why let someone deter you in the first place? As long as its not a fool mans quest, then you should continue in achieving your goal, despite any opposition. You shouldn’t let anyone’s comments put you off. Use their comments n...

Did you mean, Sisyphus? Pretty good points, I don’t know where to begin. Incidentally I like that analogy. You mentioned people would need to set a flag. Well as of today the subs will (should) be clearly marked, where the up loader can clearly click ‘ Subtitles are machine translated ’ option in th...

Sounds like a sound plan, but as far as coding and restructuring of the site goes, I think it would be wise to get OS' input on this. He should be here later on in the evening. As for your suggestion. If I get a special dispensation in the API I could even try to find a way to get a good source of s...

OS thought of marking these subs, but also expressed needing help with the code in setting it up. Help that I sadly won't be able to provide. If this is something you could help him with, then that would be great. I think it would be better if they were marked some how, but until that comes into eff...

MACHINE TRANSLATION NOTICE!

(EDITED 04 May 2014) Dear Opensubtitle users, After some serious debate and discussion, Opensubtitles has decided to get rid of all “MACHINE TRANSLATED” subtitles. Some admins might not still delete them, as is their discretion. The reason for this is: Surprisingly, some people still prefer the tra...
