More statistics available
Last time, chatting with Majky, he asked, if he should see some stats about using his Oscar – I said no problem. So I created some more stats.

Time to time I check trac for new tickets, and I found interesting one (actually, it was send by user and I put it in trac), where was suggestion about creating favourite subtitles for user. This means, you can mark any subtitles and add it to you favourites.
We needed better subtitles reporting system, so user should change info like release name, uploader comment or even uploader. I coded it and this is all now possible with new reporting system, so you can try that.
Don’t be scared, when you will see in URL OpenSubtitles.com – we are testing something, don’t update bookmarks, OpenSubtitles.org is still correct URL.
Some of you might have already noticed that opensubtitles.org didn’t work for past couple of days correctly. This was due to the move to a new hardware and new operating system version of our servers at collocation.
MPC means Media Player Classic (download), it is a little old – latest release is dated to 2006-03-20, but that means nothing. It is still one of the best software players floating around. I will show you in this guide how to download perfectly matched subtitles without opening any website using OpenSubtitles.org ISDb protocol.
We decided use unique bug reporting system called Trac – an enhanced wiki and issue tracking system for software development projects.
After some discussion with Majky (author of Oscar), we agreed on adding 2 new methods to XMLRPC API. One Method is SearchMoviesOnIMDB($token, $query), which returns array of movies from imdb.com. Next method is GetIMDBMovieDetails($token, $imdbid), which returns some nice information for given imdbid.
Today I’d like to write about added signature in subtitle files. It is common, that other subtitle sites do this and now we do this too.
I had to disable discussion for subtitles, it takes too long to get comments, it is caused by “wrong” tables.
Today I had idea – what about new feature – when someone post comment to some subtitles, uploader of those subtitles should receive informative mail about that.
As you can see, on subtitle detail page is now possible click to “Show trailer” link, but it unfortunately doesn’t work in Opera browser for some unknown reason. Anyway, it is searching for movie trailers, so I hope you will have fun with this small feature.
After some months of unusability of request section I decided to create it again almost from scratch. Now it should be better, faster and it has more features.
After playing a little bit with memcache I had to implement better caching technique. Site was down for some hours, I look what happened…it was an error, which I didn’t see any time before…
I did not update donations list at main page – I will update it soon, but not of them will be visible, so here it is complete list of donors. Thank you for any donate, we appreciate that!
