I want to add subtitles in XBMC addon addresses:
http://subs.sab.bz/
http://subsunacs.net/

If you can show me some guidance I would be very grateful, as Bulgarian subtitles are very small with current sites.

you can look at the existing services and see how it was done there. ask questions once you get stuck....

If you need any aditional info just tell me.

Reporting back regarding my problem - podnapisi.net not finding any results (when it should). Figured by now someone else would do it <- lazy

Here's the debug log:

http://pastebin.com/p1jDSy3J

I tried opening the url from the debug log, and it opens instantly. The XML that opened contained - as far as I can tell - a number of correct subtitles, yet the addon shows "no subtitles found". No idea why that would be. It's as if it can't parse the xml. Here's the xml I get in browser.

User and password are 100% correct.

thats not correct log, we need full log to see wtf is going on. please do not clip the log

I reinstaled xbmc on atv2.Where to download older versions of this great addon. Resent versions does not work for me, but i cant rollback to 2.9 or something. It ofers only to 3.0.

Or at the very least, I've never experienced any issues, and I have never heard of any issues other than some add-ons not sharing all data. Will try to note this on the wiki.

I think that was a really good idea to do that. Maybe we shouldn't continue this discussion in this thread but can you see if it is the XBMC core doing this wroing (looking at amets two rows of my log and my row in the end of my post above)?
The examples of this log is from my OSX client and I just want to tell you that it handles it differently on the Windows 7 client.

Is there a way to exclude a specific folder from the addon_data path substitution as a temp fix to this and still be able to share the others?

no, not possible

Hello,
how and where can I change the subtitle file name? Right now, it get's downloaded as temp*.* which is not so useful. The next time the video is played it will not show subtitles again. The subtitle file name should always automatically be the same as the video file name IMHO, with or without language as per setting.
