subdownloader ubuntu Error "Unable to download subtitle abc.srt"

Same here, was working perfectly, after a few subtitles downloaded started giving me the error. Unable to download subtitle...

Running in CLI, this is the result:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/subdownloader/gui/main.py", line 1126, in onButtonDownload

This is probably related to this:

Does your site implement antileech protection? ^
Yes. Explanation - even if we are OpenSubtitles, leeching is forbidden. If you want to download more subtitles for any reason, just contact us, write what you want and why and we will see. This antileech protection is good for regular users, server is responding faster. Please do not try running any download bots on our site. Thanks.
Limit is: 1 IP/max 50 subtitles/12 hours

Please provide a patch or other solution

I started having this problem a few hours ago, i know that i downloaded WAY over 50 subs in the past 12hrs.. so i guess im going to use a proxy and see if this fixes it...

Hi, this happens me, too, and I didn't download any subtitle in the last 12 hours (to be precise I didn't use subDownloader for the last 2 days) before getting the error. Any solution yet?

Thank you very much.

We are working on it. Expect a new release fixing this very soon.

In the next few days we will release, on the meanwhile you can use the button or right click option of "Subtitle Info" to go to the opensubtitles.org link to download the subtitle. We apologize for the delay but we didn't expected the Captcha option new installed in opensubtitles.org website.

I run also into this captcha problem, even if I have a VIP account on opensubtilte.org.
That's weird because in VIP mode, we shouldn't have any captcha.
But It seems that for downloading, subdownloader doesn't log in the user.
I retrieved this line in the captcha downloaded page :
"<div id="logindetail" class="top_info_left"><strong>You are not logged in!</strong>"
But the subdownloader logs told that I was logged in : "Login ended in 0.019 with status: 200 OK"
weird...

Richard.

I attached a quick and dirty patch that use credentials for downloading subtitles.
So, in the case you're a vip member on opentubtitle.org, there's no more captchas.
As I'm not a python guru, I just did this little change that worksforme(r), but It may break some other things...

Richard.

After so many years, still the problem persists. The patch from Richard Genoud did the trick!

I also have the same issue. It was started some days ago. Can you please help?

A fixed will be release in the next days cause this is becoming a bottleneck for many users.

Bottleneck? I consider it MAJOR FAIL. Like through the app away...

I have the same problem since mid december. I updatded the program version, but still doesn't work. Not for just one subtitle a day. I select the subtitle to download, and get the error message can't download srt. It downloads a .zip arcive, but it's empty. Any solution to this?
thanks!
Teresa

@Filip could you explain how to do that? What editor should we use? What line should we replace? Is the patch working for non-vip users also?

the patch is just 1 line replacement using "sudo nano" or "sudo gedit",
works on downloads issue, not related to VIP status

I am at Tesco, will try to fetch you the patch

start xterm or similar CLI terminal, enter:

sudo nano /usr/share/subdownloader/gui/main.py

find using CTRL+W this line:

osHttpRequests.download('http://www.opensubtitles.org/en/download/file/%s.gz'
%sub.getIdFileOnline(), destinationPath)

and replace it with:

self.OSDBServer.DownloadSubtitles({sub.getIdFileOnline():destinationPath})

CTRL+O to write, CTRL+X to exit & start the app

Hope this helps! Cheers, Filip 😆

And I suppose it is one of the line after 1126, right?
Ok, but the problem with me is that I can't open it using "gedit" or "nano" or any other editor. gedit, for instance, returns "Invalid byte sequence in conversion input". According to you, what could be the issue?

can't help you standing in the snow hacking Ingress portal 😮

wait an hour or so... I will send you the replacement main.py

Filip Oščádal (filip-mxd-cz) Thank you very much now it works again (using debian 8)

I dont have the file itself:

sudo nano /usr/share/subdownloader/gui/main.py

Please help

To me it is at: /usr/share/pyshared/subdownloader/gui/main.py

And it worked fine after replacing the main.py.

Thanks A Lot :)
