Why can’t we type the name of the movie manually to search for the subtitles? :: Sometimes file names have to be typed manually in order for them to appear
We want to write the name of the movie manually … Look at this application that puts the name automatically … You can also write manually
Sometimes the movie links, when placed in the Apple TV, in the name appear different, so when we search for the subtitles, it says there is no
We must provide an option for us to manually type the name of the movie in the subtitle search field
For example, when I search for Infuse, the results appear, there is no… But when I search with another application by manually writing the name, the subtitle appears
You can type the movie’s name manually to get it correctly identified (if it was misidentified during import) by using the “edit metadata” function.
If correctly identified, it will search OpenSubtitles’ database (I assume you are referring to Infuse’s built-in subtitle search feature) by movie title and release year.
If you are requesting to search for subtitles by querying not by the movie’s proper title, but by the specific filename name of the copy you downloaded as assigned by the syndicate that released the torrent — perhaps to make it easier to find a subtitle track that syncs well with the version of rip you downloaded … that might be better communicated by requesting a feature to search subtitles by filename (as an alternative to searching subtitles by title and release year) or, perhaps better yet, and additional post-search option to filter search results by filename.
Basing this on the image you posted; and can’t really think of any other reason you wouldn’t want to search by the content’s proper title.
I know that…but there are movies, for example, with Arabic subtitles, for which there is only one file and it is compatible with most copies…when searching through infuse, it comes up with a message that there is no subtitle…and when writing the name of the movie manually in other programs, it comes with subtitles
Why don’t we provide the option to erase the movie name and write manually
Yes, I know that. Arabic or English has been selected…and there are subtitle, but in the application it appears that there is no…but when written manually, it appears
It’s simple, not impossible
It comes with the name of the movie Automatic
But with an option, we can erase the name of the movie and write it manually (I don’t know why we complicate things)
This is one of the examples: : The subtitles are available on opensubtitle, but when searching automatically, the subtitles do not appear … but when you type only me and me, the subtitles will appear
That’s not the name of the movie — that’s the name of the file.
If that file isn’t part of the library (meaning it hasn’t been indexed and matched to a title in TMDB’s database yet), odds are you won’t have luck searching because OpenSubtitles API can’t process unfiltered filenames like that.
Infuse needs to first index a file to figure out which movie it actually is, in order for it to forward that information to open subtitles.
I’d suggest renaming the files if you don’t want them indexed.
I can see why you want to be able to edit the search terms when searching subtitles; and perhaps others will see the value in that … I’m not sure Infuse will want to go that way but if your suggestion gets a lot of support from other users they might just decide it’s a feature worth adding.
Sometimes when playing some direct movie links…the name of the movie is in the link, for example
222222
or
729273827
or
j62928282
When we are looking for subtitles, there is no
We have to write manually and Infuse does not allow that!
For me the way to view my status
Put the movie link in infuse and watch
I don’t want to download or store the movie and change the file name
For me the way to view my status
Put the link of the movie on the iPhone, go to Apple TV in icloud, and watch
I don’t want to download or store the movie and change the file name
Use it temporarily (we are waiting for the option to put the direct link on the Apple TV and paste the link via the Apple TV remote control application) is better than iCloud
Infuse uses the TMDB/IMDB ID numbers for movies and shows to match titles on OpenSubtitles.
If you have movies with random filenames like ‘729273827.mkv’ you can use the Edit Metadata option in Infuse to match these to the correct title on TMDB.
Once this is done, Infuse can then download subtitles (along with metadata and artwork) for these videos.
