OpenSubtitles OSD

Hello

Thanks for a great looking skin!

I see the option of having an OpenSubtitles OSD button in the skin settings. I have turned this on but how is it supposed to work? I was hoping that it'd allow me to start a movie/tv-show and click a subtitles button and have the script/skin present me with subtitles for what I'm currently watching (like in Boxee).

Your hopes have come true
Well, sort of...

Forgot to mention - I have the OpenSubtitles script installed, of course.

That's another script!
Opensubitles_OSD

Thank you :-) I realized that! I have installed the script and restarted XBMC.

However, when I try the OSD button it gives me an error :
"Error. Python Script failed. Special://<the path to opensubtitles_osd>"

Any ideas?

Hello,

how can I enable the button for OSD-scripts? And get this working on the Rapier 2.0 Skin?

I have followed the instructions and downloaded the 1.37 script to Q:\Scripts\Opensubtitles_OSD

I dot not understand the part: "Copy files from skin folders, media and 720p, to their respective places in your skin folders. Make sure you backup the original .xml files first."

My skin folder is e:\XBMC\skin\Rapier and I am using recent t3ch build released on 2009-09-27.

Which files should I copy to where?

Regards,
Joe

The path displayed by the errorbox points to "/home/scripts/opensubtitles_osd..." - I don't have that path (AppleTV).

According to the page on http://code.google.com/p/opensubtitles-osd/ there's a script-settings menu. I can't get to that when I press and hold menu on the script.

I have tried editing the path directly in that scripts default.py but still get the same error!

the skin hacks that you found on google code page are not for Rapier skin, Rapier skin supports OpenSubtitles_OSD, all you need to do is enable it in skin settings. As for installing the script just run the SVN repo installer.

special://home/scripts/ translates to "Users/frontrow/Application support/XBMC/user data/scripts" on ATV, so if you installed OpenSubtitles_OSD correctly you should have "special://home/scripts/opensubtitles_osd" path.
