Subtitles?

Post by Labbe »

Hello!

I am a new user to this software and have downloaded a couple of videos from viaplay.se and it worked great for the video but no subtitles were downloaded. I have checked all subtitles in the main settings. Other software that I have tried downloaded a srt.file but not this software. Any help will be appreciated.

Best regards, Labbe

I download them manually using a .bat file. The mpd link you need can be copied directly from the Link Finder Expert in the latest version. (See more here: viewtopic.php?f=20&t=12171)

How to create the bat file: https://forum.videohelp.com/threads/404 ... ost2647939

I wish that it will be possible in the future to download subtitles from within VideoTube Downloader. :)

Please try latest version 14.22.0408, it should detect all subtitles.

It seems that this is broken in v14.22.0518 and the latest v14.22.0611.

At least it don´t work from Discovery+ and C More, i do only get the .mpd-link.

Impossible to launch old version (0408)

Post by Digital Man »

The ability to fetch subtitles from Discovery+ were added to version 0408. This was a very welcome feature. This feature is broken in v0510 and v0611, so now when i needed subtitles i uninstalled v0611 and installed v0408.

But each time i try to launch v0408 i get a dialog that promts me to download a newer version, register, or cancel. If i click Register i can register successfully but i still cannot launch v0408. Uninstall/reinstall and rebooting the computer does not help, v0408 refuses to launch and just promts me to download a newer version, register or cancel. (If i install v0611 it will launch)

Are "older" versions stopped from functioning and if that´s the case, why?

Probably those sites have made changes and subtitles are streamed differently now. We don't have access to check.

Version 14.22.0408 added support for viaplay subtitles only, which works in latest version.

Due to sites frequently changes and to ensure users are running latest version, older versions will ask to update to latest version.
