Are you using KODI? Many users are getting the following questions:
- Why opensubtitles add-on is missing from KODI?
- Opensubtitles.org KODI add-on is gone.

The opensubtitles.org add-on was removed from KODI because of few reasons. You can read more about the reason here.
So, installing the missing opensubtitles add-on in KODI is not a difficult task. Actually, It’s quite simple.
Installing opensubtitles add-on KODI:
1. Install KODI if you do not have it installed yet.
2. Download the OpenSubtitles Add-on zip file here.
3. Launch KODI. Move to System -> Settings.
Click Add-ons.
Choose Install from Zip file.
Now, choose the downloaded zip file. That’s it!
It will show you that the opensubtitles.org add-on is enabled now. You can confirm it by going to SYSTEM -> SETTINGS -> ADD-ONS -> My Add-ons -> Subtitles -> OpenSubtitles.org.
You can click “Configure” in the opensubtitles.org add-on and give your username, password.
This will disable all the advertisements if you are an VIP.
So, go ahead and enjoy opensubtitles.org add-on and feel free to share your comments bellow.

Thanks. Was looking for why it was disabled and found this blog. Via the zip mines are working again. So just swinging by to say thanks.
P.s. Kodi’s reasons are rubbish imo.

Thanks, I have been looking for this for awhile.
Why do I have to use my cc to get a username?
Cine ma ajuta ?i pe mine cu titrarile pentru seriale.. nu reusesc sub nici o forma sa insttalez
I’ve gave 2 sets of credit card details now and both say the cards cannot be used. Why do you need this at all? Surely many users do not use credit cards and does anyone care about fake accounts? It’s hardly registering to vote (which you don’t need credit card for!)
don’t give us any credit card! it is not needed. You just have to register on http://www.opensubtitles.org
I just noticed the problem with the default plugin.
Here are the steps that I followed:
– register to opensubtitles, no credit card needed
– tried to use the default plugin with login information, was working at some time but eventually stopped
– before uninstalling the plugin, reset login information to original (empty login/password)
– uninstall and reboot Kodi (actually I rebooted the box)
– install from zip and do not set any login/password
Thanks to the opensubtitles guys for their platform, I can almost always find subtitles working like a charm even in french language for most of the movies or series.
Goede avond
Ik heb een vraag ik heb altijd zonder.problemen opensubtitles.org gehad en ik start vandaag me kastje op en moet ineens een wachtwoord en username in vullen hèb dit nooit gehad kan iemand me helpen ik ben einde raad
What username and password should I use when configuring opensubtitles?
On kodi it now says username and pasword. Otherwise it dont work. Why is this now? I have it 5 years neer problems but now yiu need to log in?..
it is because of KODI guidelines, they don’t accept extra texts in subtitles, so we forced users to login if using addon (from their official REPO)
register and login on http://www.opensubtitles.org – that username and password.
Wat password and usernane do i have to enter
I dont have card bank …so how can i get username and password
