I just upgraded to version 6.0. When searching for subs I finally get a list of available subs from Opensubtitles, but when I try and download them, I get the same error as in version 5.
“An error ocurred. It wasnt possible to download the subtitles from Opensubtitles. Please check your internet connection and try again.”
Some services (like OpenSubtitles, TMDb, etc…) are blocked in certain countries.
We’ve been working on a solution for people in these countries, and these will be available soon. Unfortunately they weren’t quite ready in time for 6.0.
I live in Denmark. Just checked their website and it seems to be the case. Cant download subtitles from there either:-( I hope for a solution very soon. Subscene.com though isnt blocked in my country. Maybe is has something to do with Opensubs also linking to pirated movies and subscene only have subtitles. Found a list from the Danish Tele Industry with blocked DSN adresse from February 21, 2018 and “api.opensubtitles.org” and “dl.opensubtitles.org” are both on the list.
A change in my DNS settings to google DNS unblocked it all:) But I still hope for a more permanent solution, so I dont have to keep using google dns.
