Opensubtitles.org not working in media playing programs
Hi folks
just seems to have happened in the last few days
I can't get subtitles via opensubtitles.org any more when playing content say using KODI etc - even content from my own NAS.
It always comes back saying usename / password invalid or empty.
I've logged on to the site -- absolutely no problem -- not isp blocked etc etc --anybody else got this problem.
I do like the subtitles especially as a lot of modern films etc have usually bonkersly loud music / special effects and very quiet or mumbled dialog.
One can still get subtitles via the "elephantine way" --retrieve via the internet from the opensubtitles.org and save on NAS as a local subtitle when playing the media - but that's hideously inconvenient -- the original method just allowed you to search and get the subtitle direct while playing the media --very good for TV series boxed sets etc.
Cheers
