Project description

Subliminal

Subliminal is a python library to search and download subtitles. It comes with an easy to use CLI (command-line interface) suitable for direct use or cron jobs.

Providers

Subliminal uses multiple providers to give users a vast choice and have a better chance to find the best matching subtitles. Providers are extensible through a dedicated entry point.

  • Addic7ed

  • OpenSubtitles

  • Podnapisi

  • TheSubDB

  • TvSubtitles

Usage

CLI

Download english subtitles:

$ subliminal -l en -- The.Big.Bang.Theory.S05E18.HDTV.x264-LOL.mp4
1 subtitle downloaded

Library

Download best subtitles in French and English for videos less than one week old in a video folder, skipping videos that already have subtitles whether they are embedded or not:

from babelfish import Language
from datetime import timedelta
import subliminal

# configure the cache
subliminal.cache_region.configure('dogpile.cache.dbm', arguments={'filename': '/path/to/cachefile.dbm'})

# scan for videos in the folder and their subtitles
videos = subliminal.scan_videos(['/path/to/video/folder'], subtitles=True, embedded_subtitles=True, age=timedelta(weeks=1))

# download
subliminal.download_best_subtitles(videos, {Language('eng'), Language('fra')}, age=timedelta(week=1))
