GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 605701
Allow to save downloaded subtitles
Last modified: 2010-01-06 15:35:36 UTC
There should be some way to save the subtitles we have just downloaded. Here are some of the arguments I could think of: 1. It's boring to have to search the same subtitles as we are watching some video several times. 2. I usually share my videos with other people not necessarily using totem. Not having a copy of the subtitles force them to search the painful way. 3. I use to correct subtitles whenever I spot unbearable mistakes.
Created attachment 150874 [details] [review] Adds a button to choose the location where the subtitles are downloaded I'm not used to submitting patches so it may not be correctly done. A button is added in the search window, it's labeled "Save and play". It opens a file-chooser window, saves the file to the selected location and then plays the video with the subtitles (just like the other button).
The subtitles are automatically downloaded (and saved), and potentially reused (if you have Totem set to auto-load subtitles) in ~/.cache/totem/subtitles/ It should probably be documented somewhere.
