Hi,
The number 1 feature that I'm missing in SubCentral is an automatic subtitle downloading. I know it's in the issue list, and I know there were several threads about it. However, no one implemented it, afaik...
So... I'm considering starting to work on this feature myself.
The requirements are as follows:
How should this automatic subtitle downloader work?
As a process plugin, that runs once a day or upon restart, and searches for subtitle (according to the terms described above), or as a separate tool, that updates missing subtitles, by demand. Second option is a lot like MePo tools for clear art and logos.
Please use the poll above.
Thanks,
Yoav

The requirements are as follows:
- It should use SubCentral (inc. its setting)
- It should use MediaPortal databases for MovingPictures, MPTV-Series (maybe others as well)
- It should download only exact matches
- It should download first exact matches for every language configured.
- It may keep track of item's age & item's last check, so that the next check will be according to that. For example, a new TV episode in the database (a week old) will be checked for subtitles every day, but a year old movie in the database will be checked only once a month.
