Hello,
There is an error in the addon (libreelec 11.0.4) 1.0.4
When the addon download subtitles, itā€™s trying to saving it from tempory file and name to the subtitle destination, saving the name file with space so itā€™s not working.
Maybe itā€™s not for all version language and condition

ok, thank for reporting. we are also struggling with the naming of certain files depending on their language, for example pt-BR, will try to include a fix for your problem in next release.

Iā€™m still running Kodi 17.6 (Python2) and no intentions to update because it works 100% perferctly fine.

As your new Kodi plugin is for new Kodi (Python3), can you provide a quick patch which change this API thing and keeps plugin working. Upgrading Kodi only because one plugin sounds unreasonable when everything else works super smoothly.

I know for sure, Iā€™m not the only one with this problem.

Or if someone else knows what to change, I would be more than happy to patch my plugin manually.

someone made a branch for older python, you can try it here

Hello , I have instaled Kodi 20, I import from old site the pasword, and when I try to download subtitles, I find them, but I cant download them. Faildā€¦
I use fire TV. Any solution?

itā€™s all about:

  • getting the proper extension (opensubtitles.com 1.0.4 from official repository )
  • finding the settings for the extension
  • entering the username in the username field
  • entering the password in the password field

if that still doesnā€™t work you can open a ticket https://www.opensubtitles.com/en/contact keep in mind we donā€™t have physical access to your device, so rely on the informations you provide

Hi, I have a question about Spanish subtitles. I see that on the website there are three types of spanish: Spanish, Spanish (LA), and Spanish (EU). Since Kodi only has ā€œSpanishā€ as an option under the ā€œLanguages to download subtitles forā€ settings, the addon is only pulling subtitles from the regular ā€œSpanishā€ section and ignoring results from Spanish (LA) or Spanish (EU).

I managed to find a way to add more options to the ā€œLanguages to download subtitles forā€ list using advancedsettings.xml (https://kodi.wiki/view/Advancedsettings.xml#languagecodes), but Iā€™m not sure what to put for the short name or long name so that the addon can recognize it and pull subtitles from the Spanish (LA) and Spanish (EU) sections as well.

Thanks in advance.

Alright, I figured it out, ā€œeaā€ is for spanish (LA) and ā€œspā€ is for spanish (EU), here is what I have on advancedsettings.xml

<advancedsettings version="1.0">
	<languagecodes>
	  <code>
		<short>ea</short>
		<long>Spanish (LA)</long>
	  </code>
	  <code>
		<short>sp</short>
		<long>Spanish (EU)</long>
	  </code>
	</languagecodes>
</advancedsettings>

After that I just have to select Spanish (LA) and Spanish (EU) in the ā€œLanguages to download subtitles forā€ list and now Iā€™m getting subtitles from those sections too. All good.
