Full Version: Batch Subtitle Downloader?
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Does anyone know of a program that can download subtitles en masse? I'd like something I could point at my movie folder and have it download missing subtitles, hopefully something that can figure out which subtitle version fits my movie file. I get dirty looks from the family when we play "pick the subtitle" lotto on XBMC. Big Grin
Hi.

Your post is old, but if you haven't found yet, you can try periscope (https://github.com/patrickdessalle/periscope)

You can also take a look at periscope-daemon (periscoped), a script I built hover periscope which does the same thing, but as a daemon with inotify support (linux only)
https://github.com/jcsaaddupuy/periscoped

When a sub is not found, periscoped will retry again and again, but with an increasing laps of time - so video with no sub at all will be less and less processed.
Also, you can take a look at subliminal (https://github.com/Diaoul/subliminal/tre...subliminal) which is a great one too.
Thanks! Your python script and periscope look perfect! Quick question: if I import a path, will your script also check for new files added to the path or do I need to re-import manually?
