Ok I can easily add an optional login. I use to have that on the old api as well.

My question is, when it fails because the ip is banned and the user needs to log in, how will I know that happened? and it is there a way for me to test that kind of response while writing the code?

Thanks.

I see and I guess I can do this only for users who are banned? Is there an easy way to know this authentication will be required and more importantly, is there a way for me to test this without having to find a banned vpn ip?

Should I make all users log in like I used to with the old api?

I'll let them know.

Any idea how much the new api will change and when it will be available? I'm getting close to porting my android code to ios and I would hate to have to write it twice.

Thanks.

So one of my users downloads the subtitle and gets this on the screen "In order to continue OpenSubtitles subtitles service you need to Log In".

How can they log in with this new API?

basically, the best is moviehash and size search, if that will bring no desired results, query is the last best option.

Yeah that is exactly how we are doing it, second query if the first was empty. Thanks.

Hi the best is to make two separate requests. To be clear: https://rest.opensubtitles.org/search/moviebytesize-1881810387/moviehash-1e607b537af68983/query-a+knights+tale/sublanguageid-eng is redirecting to https://rest.opensubtitles.org/search/moviebytesize-1881810387/moviehash-1e607b537af68983/sub...

Hi, you have to search by moviename (1st query) and then hash and filesize (2nd query) Just to be clear, are you suggesting I make two searches or that I rearrange the search parameters? For example on this search: https://rest.opensubtitles.org/search/moviebytesize-1881810387/moviehash-1e607b537af...

Hi,

you have to search by moviename (1st query) and then hash and filesize (2nd query)

Will try it. Thanks.

Is it possible to perform a search with movie name, hash and file size and have it return everything not just the ones that match file size and hash?

Thanks.

Is there a way to pass the year field on this new api like on the old one?

Is it really necessary to pass file size and hash together? can I just pass file size?

Thanks.

Is the api down? Been having issues all day.

Ok, thanks, I'll let the user know.

I know it can be found, but is there a way for my users to search it by name?

I have a user searching for subtitles of a show called "11.22.63" but my app can't find any subtitles. I tried 2 other apps and they can't find them either. If I search on your site it does find them.

Thanks.
