subliminal VS plugins

If you are comfortable with the Terminal, you can also use Subliminal: https://github.com/Diaoul/subliminal

I downloaded a lua script to be run by mpv player on MacOS. The script uses the subliminal module to download subtitles.

Subliminal

It requires a python package called subliminal

There's a python "app" called subliminal (with a simple CLI) that handles the whole enchilada for you - identify the movie, contact several subtitle dbs to download the appropriate subtitles.

Not sure how up-to-date it is kept, but for me it works reasonably well, except for obscure films.

Edit: Google points me to this issue suggesting that it’s not implemented - however one of the developers says it is … and yet hasn’t closed the issue.

Hello. I was using SubsMarine but it doesn't work anymore on M1. Subliminal seems dead now, my version does not download anything. Can you suggest me an app to download subtitles for many files, supporting several sources ? (Addic7ed, opensubtitles, podnapisi at least) ? I don't care if it's graphical or command line.

I created a batch file that adds srt subs to your movies in one click. It requires that you have the following installed: MKVToolNix Subliminal ffsubsync
