Re: Writing a film identifying application, thoughts appreciated

What is the xml-rpc request you're sending and what is the response?
Your screenshot doesn's say much.

Re: Problems Matching w/ MovieHash

The file size is listed next to the video filename.
And the file size is part of the hash itself.

What language did you search for in your program and what language in the advanced search?

Re: API: Smarter cache updates

Strange. Maybe you can submit request(TryUpload and Upload) and responses -xml to look at? Are you getting the URL back in the Upload response? For me, it works instantly. It used to take 24 hrs depending if I was the first doing the search. Now it's instant. I must say that I'm passing all the fiel...

Re: Security check which blocks for to DL subs

The 'I'm Not A Robot' check?
You don't have that using the xml-rpc download.

Re: Decoding Japanese and Korean subtitles

You will never know in what encoding the uploader saved the file. There isn't a standard for textfiles. Opensubtitles can convert them for you in Unicode/UTF8. No guarantees that it always works but it's a lot better. Unfortunately, you can't download them via XMLRPC but you can change the URL you g...

SubFlix: Please help BETA testing (Mac OS X)

Hello, I've created a new (free) program for automatically searching and downloading Subtitles. Compared to the currently available tools, it should work smarter in selecting the right subtitles, it is way faster, supports secure connections and much more. You can either drop in 1 or a complete dire...

Re: iconv() downloads captcha

Oss,

If I have a IDSubtitleFile, I use the DownloadSubtitles method. However, I cannot pass the encoding type with it.
Is it somehow still possible to generate a valid iconv() download link if I only have the IDSubtitleFile?

Re: new XML subtitle application

Where you say 'language', you mean 'format'.
You're on a brave quest designing a new format but I would like to suggest you look into JSON and forget about the rest.
If it's done smart, simple and flexible in JSON, you have a lot better chance people are actually going to pick it up.
My 2 cents.

iconv() downloads captcha

Since I cannot find a way to download the with iconv() converted subtitles using the API, I'm using direct downloads (for example: http://dl.opensubtitles.org/en/download/subencoding-utf8/file/1954602263). After doing xx downloads, the IP ends up on the captcha block. Is there a way to do this via t...

Search on IMDB bug?

Hi, Not sure if I stumbled on a bug in the API or if I'm doing something wrong but I'm getting some weird results. I think it happened before with another search but I moved on. However, I wanted to mention it now. When I do an IMDB search (using the searchsubtitles method) on IMDB 2908446 with lang...

Re: Convert encoding and format in realtime (WEBVTT support)

Change of character encoding normally, when you download file, you get same file back, as was uploaded. You dont know the encoding, and that is causing mess. Now you can try to change encoding like this URL for changing encoding: http://dl.opensubtitles.org/en/download/subencoding-utf8/file/1954602...
