What is Subtitle player v2.0??
Subtitle player is a plugin for Enigma2 based satellite receivers featuring:

Imdb plugin
- you can use plugin to get all kind of information's about the movie, on original language or translated with Google Translate. Also, it translates movie titles from various languages if possible (for example if you search EPG of German, Polish, Dutch provider you will get original movie title and info about the movie on English). Advantage of this plugin comparing to original IMDB plugin is

- speed (it's a lot faster because it has direct access to the epg of current channel)
- has an option to manually specify search terms
- enables translation of results to other languages

Subtitle downloader
- downloads subtitles from internet and translates movie titles over epg.
Subtitles are downloaded from two databases

* podnapisi.net
* PerfectSat DTC databas
* Titlovi.com
* Opensubtitles.org

Subtitle player
featuring subtitle display in the movies or series without conversion. Something like Drtic but with more options. Movies can be subtitled regardless if you're watching them live or as a recording.

Imdb
We start plugin from Plugins menu





After that we select "IMDB search"
To move trough the menu you can use UP/DOWN buttons or simply press GREEN button to select "IMDB search". This comes handy if you have fast plugin set to 2 x GREEN, so you enter directly to IMDB if you press GREEN button three times.

It opens IMDB part and now we can perform search



- manually specifying search term
- search trough EPG

Manually There are two ways to enter term manually

By directly entering term in the textbox



Or by pressing BLUE button to open virtual keyboard which we can use to enter the term. After you're done typing simply confirm with GREEN button.



After we're done writing we press the button OK and get the list of titles (if there is only one result it will be displayed straight forward).



Now we select one of the titles, confirm with ok and get someting like this



If we press OK once more we will get translated version



If we want to check some info from EPG of the current program we have to press YELLOW button



choose event we want to see informations for and confirm with OK



This plugin allows us to translate movie title from non english satellite providers (German, Polish, Dutch..). Results depends on IMDB database.
After selecting the title we confirm with GREEN button to get something like this



and we get results

Subtitle downloader

To download subtitles we need to select "Subtitle files" from main menu.



First we set storage path for subtitles (BLUE button)



I've set this to /media/usb/titles (i created titles folder myself) so i can download and use subtitles in all images, or you can leave this on the default.

With <Parent Directory> you're going one level up in explorer.
Before setup you can pun one subtitle inside that folder and select it with OK



Then we're going to download subtitle and maybe check some info about it (GREEN button)



And going to download menu



Here we have few options:
- to manually enter term for search
- to select BLUE button and get virtual keyboard
- to select title from EPG list

Here's EPG example. We press YELLOW button and select title





Now we press GREEN button to get IMDB translation of the movie title



Now we select our result (if there is only one it will open directly)



And when we exit with EXIT button IMDB title will be written in the textbox



Now we press OK to search subtitle database



and we get results of matching subtitles for our search. Always choose titles with more stars (checked) and 25 FPS. If there is no such titles try to choose ones with FPS information available because plugin will use this information to adjust subtitle speed automatically.
We confirm with OK, wait few moments and subtitle is downloaded. Confirm once more with OK to run the subtitle.



This part covers download from Podnapisi.net database, but procedure for DTC subtitles is exactly the same.

Subtitle Player

When you run the plugin for the first time you'll have to set options in plugins settings.



You can define subtitle font size, whether you want subtitles to have background or not (handy for movies which already have titles you want to cover), and finally language you want to use in plugin.



When you're done setting you have to set "Save settings" to "Yes" and restart plugin.



When setting subtitles position



you can use UP/DOWN buttons to vertically move subtitles.



And when we run it



Title is here with Opaque background



or if you choose transparent background you will have something like this



Using INFO button you can see informations about title timings (if you skipped part of a movie), FPS and fine shift settings. You'll also notice that if you had different FPS when you downloaded the movie plugin switched it automatically after pressing this button.



Also, if you skip a part of a movie, to find matching line easily use button 5 which will give you a list of 25 +/- closest lines after you simply choose the right one with OK button. Plugin uses EPG time to give you approximate time.



If subtitle is running late or fast you can tune it in a few ways:

Using button 0 you can change FPS (if it's subtitle with no FPS information or DTC subtitle). If title is running late you choose lower FPS number and other way around.



In a case you still have subtitles late or fast you can manually fine tune subtitles speed to slow down or accelerate.

Button 1 will ACCELERATE subtitles by 5 ms steps
Button 3 will SLOW DOWN subtitles by 5 ms steps

Button 4 will ACCELERATE subtitles by 25 ms steps
Button 6 will SLOW DOWN subtitles by 25 ms steps



Also there are numerous buttons you can use in plugin with functions:

LEFT ----- previous subtitle line (when you're setting the title)
RIGHT ---- next subtitle line
OK ------- jumps to the next line in the subtitle
UP ------- 10 lines back
DOWN ----- 10 lines forward

1 - accelerate subtitles by -5ms steps
3 - slow downsubtitles by 5ms steps
4 - accelerate subtitles by -25ms steps
6 - slow downsubtitles by 25ms steps

5 - moves subtitles position to the elapsed time by EPG and opens list with 25 +/- lines (in case you didn't watch the movie from the beginning)

7 -------- jumps to the position you previously exited from (if you watched recorded movie, next time you run it it will get you where you left off)
9 -------- jumps exactly on the line with calculation of elapsed time you didn't watch the movie (if you watched the movie, stopped, and than went back to it)

Also when you're in subtitle explorer you can delete titles by pressing button 0 and selecting subtitle you want to delete. Use 0 button again to get back to normal mode.



If this server dont have subtitles of your language you can use your archive end send them into box with some ftp tool .
Yust load them with Subtitle explorer (red button)

Added in newer versions

- Added Help option
- Improved loading of non-standard (problematic) subtitles
- When jumping with up and down buttons (10 subtitles) now appears an info bar about the subtitle time (if you want quickly jump close info bar with exit or OK button)
- And last and very important news is: - 5 button now opens full subtitle list (not just +/- 25 lines of text) and on each line you have a timing now.
This allows a lot easier finding the right line of subtitle thath you need (eg, if you start to watch on the 30th-minute of movie you can easy find subtitle around that time.
- Option to select type of subtitle download (Movies, Series, Movies & Series)
Option to select subtitle color (yellow, blue, red..)
-Added half transparent background (light gray)
-Pause subtitle with Yellow button (2 x OK to continue)
-Plugin does not need to be restarted to accept changes in settings.
-Added download and menu languages
-Included converting to utf-8 format for other languages too.
-Added the new po files (Serbian, Italian ....)
-Automatic selection of a version of the box
