How to make 'Live Subtitles' work?
Posted: Sun Nov 27, 2022 11:52 am
I'm trying to get Live Subtitles working but can't find any information on how to do so.
I tried searching in this forum, but it rejects my searches because 'subtitles' is too common a search term! It seems like any term people would need help on would be 'common' in a support forum, no? I don't suppose there's a way to turn that 'feature' off?
So far, I've created an account on OpenSubtitles.org and made an entry in UMS.cred in the form:
I'm not sure this is correct, nor was the person who suggested this as a way to enter the required credentials.
I found a message that told me to navigate to the 'Live Subtitles' folder; I stumbled upon a folder named "#--LIVE SUBTITLES--#" in the web UI under 'All Videos'. When I click on a video, I get one or more images in the area to the right of the list. When I click on one of them, it starts to play the video - not what I want.
The folder contained a subfolder named "#--TRANSCODE--#", but when I clicked on a video in this folder, it started playing as it did in the parent folder. Again, not what I'm looking for.
How do I get subtitles to download so I can see them when I play the video on my TV?
Thanks for any help you can give me.
