Improve subtitle search algorithm? - Zatos - 2012-03-14

I really like XBMC, having come from using BSPlayer for almost ten years. The only thing I am struggling with is the subtitles. I do not get very good search results for my shows/movies. Usually I get nothing, yet a manual search will yield lots of results. I am using the XBMC Subtitles Add On. The file names I have usually separate words with periods: 'a.wind.called.amnesia' for ex.

I'm not deaf or anything, but my comprehension is much much better when I can read it, and also can understand things people say better.

Any help appreciated!

Debug Log of the running addon would help, also make sure you use addon with tvshows in library mode rather than file mode
