[QUOTE="kiwijunglist, post: 576980, member: 76888"] [b]Suggestion for smart ordered subtitle choice list[/b] Thank you for the subtitle search seco, it should save me a lot of time searching for subtitles manualy. Cheers! [B]Suggestion:[/B] Some of the subtitle websites (particularly for movies) have information on the video filesize and the number of cds (file parts). Maybe in the future you can think about integration of a smarter search using this information. If a subtitle source has exact match on filesize and #cds then it would be a different colour in the OSD, suggesting to the user that this is probably the best subtitle to choose. Along the same lines, if the subtitles library could also look at the video filename and see if it contains any additional search strings that match then it is also more likely to be a correct match eg. "divX" "h264" "720P" "REPACK" "aAF" "Empire Release" "HDTV" etc.... These could also be in a different colour or alternatively higher up the list. Other useful information to priorities possible matches:[LIST][*]Video fps rate [*]Download count [*]User rating[/LIST] Maybe you could do the following (in order):[LIST=1] [*]Default colour = Blue [*]If video fps rate is wrong then subtitle choice is in orange (because unlikely to be a match, but is a lot more likely than a subtitle with an uncorrect file part count) [*]If cd (filepart) count is wrong subtitle choice is red (because obviously it's extremely unlikely to be a match) [*]If filesize is an exact match then colour = Green (because it is very very likely to be the correct subtitle for your rip) [/LIST] Within a colour the subtitle choices are somehow ordered based on a combination of download count, user rating and text string filename matches. [U]For Example[/U]: Movie = Lord of war Filename = Lord.of.war.xvid.telesync.uNiT3D.mkv CD count = 2 Filesize = 645,000 kb + 631,000 kb = 976,000 kb Video fps = 23.976 [U]Subtitle choices for Movie = Lord of War[/U]: Lord.of.war.tele.srt - 2 cds - 976,000 kb Lord.of.war.xvid.telesync.uNiT3D.srt - 2 cds Lord.of.war.divx.kingdom(2cds).srt - 2 cds - 23.976 fps Lord.of.war.xvid.srt - 2 cds - 30 fps Lord.of.war.720p.bluray.srt - 23.976 fps - 1 cd - 199 downloads Lord.of.war.telesync.kingdom.srt - 23.976 fps - 1 cd - 723,000 kb - 100 downloads Lord.of.war.1080p.dts.srt - 23.976 fps - 1 cd - 50 downloads [U]Ordered List[/U]: [COLOR="SeaGreen"]Lord.of.war.tele.srt[/COLOR] [COLOR="Blue"]Lord.of.war.xvid.telesync.uNiT3D.srt Lord.of.war.divx.kingdom(2cds).srt[/COLOR] [COLOR="DarkOrange"]Lord.of.war.xvid.srt[/COLOR] [COLOR="Red"]Lord.of.war.720p.bluray.srt Lord.of.war.telesync.kingdom.srt Lord.of.war.1080p.dts.srt[/COLOR] Obviously the first 2 subtitles are the correct choices for this movie, and using the orderering logic above they are both listed at the top. [B]I also have a question:[/B] Some English language movies have small bits of foreign dialog and have subtitles for just these parts (ie not the whole movie). Does anyone know what these type of subtitles are called, and if there is a website that puts these types of subtitles in a different category. I have a few movies like this, and I have been unsuccessful in finding English subtitles that only do the foreign bits. [B][I]EDIT: Actually there is an error, because a 2part movie would have 2 filenames and 2 srt files, but i think you probably get the general idea without me re-editing my post.[/I][/B] [/QUOTE]
