Automatic Subtitle Download

Requires a Config file with Open Subtitles credentials

Vidéothèque verifies if the movie to be watched is a Foreign language movie and Downloads a subtitle if needed.

Config File

Set once properties can be grouped on a .toml file. Vidéothèque has sensible defaults and the Config file is completly optional.

The program follows the XDG Base Directory Specification and tries to find the file: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/videoteque/config.toml.

Sample

language = "fr"

[open-subtitles]
username = "my-username"
password = "my-password"

[server]
port = 1201
