Re: Is really size taken into account?

I understand, and we are aware of this issue (wrongly linkes moviehashes to subtitles). The report is implemented here: http://trac.opensubtitles.org/projects/opensubtitles/wiki/XMLRPC#ReportWrongMovieHash Not so much clients supports it, thats the problem. In a way the problem is that there's a di...

Re: Char Encoding

This is very nice. What format are you using to store internally? Webvtt? It's a super-set of SRT so it's pretty easy to go from WebVTT to SRT (actually, SRT validates as WebVTT, in a very simple way). The best library there is for format conversion is sublib, as you probably know. Sadly the thing i...

Re: Char Encoding

Couple of things: A single encoding can't just simply be "chosen" because an enormity (sadly) or players out there still don't support Unicode in any form. UTF-8 would be great. UTF-8 still isn't even the most common encoding in subtitles, although it's getting closer. Charsets *are* an ex...

Re: Subtitles for iPad

Hi, I am able to put forced subtitels on the movie on my iPad but two things I didn't like, tjat the hard subtitles do not have the option of turning it on and off and the subtitles and the fonts too big. You're not providing any info with which anyone could help you, really. "Forced" sub...

Re: Unreliable results on search

I found some small error in my code, try now and let me know, if it helps. I also corrected my code to always remove the trailing decimal point (although it was acceptable in the XMLRPC definition of "double" it looked silly, so I removed it). I'll try with an older version and let you kn...

Re: Unreliable results on search

it seems xml data what are you sending is not correct. Why you are using dot in the end of filesize? <value><double>1360763578.</double></value> I tried without dot and it works OK, I get 7 results back. Funny. It sems to be an artifact of my XML routines. I'll investigate. The weird part is that m...

Unreliable results on search

I'm not sure what's going on. I thought this was a problem on my client but then realised the server is introducing it. Sometimes I get no results for moviehashes, even if for the same movie I can find by moviehash if searching differently. 1.-If I try this I get no results: Query: <?xml version=&qu...

Re: Need beta testers for a new subtitling editor!

This is pretty interesting. I once did a subtitle editor that I never released but use internally. It's pretty similar in concept, having full keyboard control, lots of visual feedback and sync features (I also added basic fps conversions and sync with separate subs by selecting equivalent start and...

Re: more useful default result order: downloaded

SolEol at the moment does a weighted ranking based on several factors. Rating (7-8 add a point, 1-3 substract 3 points, 1,4-6 and 10 are ignored), and age (actually, I extend download number over age, which gives a fairer chance to newer subs) are two of them, as are specific flags. Most of each add...

Re: Get subtitle info by URL

Have you tried loading the subtitle info with /simplexml at the end? This serves an XML version that might be parseable by you.

Re: SolEol - download/upload subs for Win, OSX, Linux

Many thanks for the program it is really great! Just one thing...It is no longer working for me, when I find the subtitle to download it says getting subtitles but gives the following error after sometime. Many things can provoke that error. It means it's not able to get or save the file. Checking ...

Re: SolEol - download/upload subs for Win, OSX, Linux

Good program. Found myself in need of one since OpenSubDownloader went kablui a month ago. Only thing about it, as was mentioned before - the fact that once you resize the window (in order to see the full name of the subtitle) it's size will reset to 0 height. Also - the resize will not be necessar...

TMP subformat in subtitles in API

Hi. I've noticed that some "invalid" subtitle extensions are creeping into the database. Two quick examples are http://www.opensubtitles.org/en/subtitles/4240480/alien-planet-en http://www.opensubtitles.org/en/subtitles/3541084/delgo-en In both cases the API returns the "subFormat&quo...

Re: General question to hash algorithms

Quick note: What makes OS's hash impervious to collisions is, precisely, the addition of filesize. It makes sure several formats which can change in the middle of the file but not at the ends are, nonetheless, treated as different files. Adding it as a separate field ensures that the new hash doesn'...
