Boxee has already got a subtitle downloader plugin which uses OpenSubtitles.org. Unfortunately, OpenSubtitles doesn't have almost Spanish subtitles for tv shows.

Thanks to periscope project and bierdopje-subtitles-xbmc plugin, I have made a Boxee plugin to download Spanish subtitles from subtitulos.es.

Tested on MacOS X 10.5 and Boxee Beta 0.9.21.11497.

If you want help, just mail me (draxus at gmail)! :)

Update 2010-04-28: multilanguage support (Spanish, English, Portuguese, French, Deutsch, Italian and more!)

Update 2010-04-26: support for OpenSubtitles?.org and SubtitleSource?.org

How to install

1. Download the script and extract it to the boxee scripts folder. * The folder is probably at:

   • Windows: C:\Program Files\Boxee\scripts
   • Mac OS X: /Applications/Boxee.app/Contents/Resources/boxee/scripts/
   • Linux: /opt/boxee/scripts

2. Open the boxee_video_context.xml file in the skin folder with your favorite editor. This file is probably at: * Windows: C:\Program Files\Boxee\skin\boxee\720p
   * Mac OS X: /Applications/Boxee.app/Contents/Resources/boxee/skin/boxee/720p/ * Linux: /opt/boxee/skin/boxee/720p

Look for

<item>
<controlid>9008</controlid>
<visible>!IsEmpty(container(5000).ListItem.TVShowTitle) + !IsEmpty(container(5000).ListItem.FileNameAndPath) + !container(5000).ListItem.property(IsInternetStream)</visible>
<onclick>RunScript(special://xbmc/scripts/OpenSubtitles/default.py, [TV]$INFO[container(5000).ListItem.Season] $INFO[container(5000).ListItem.Episode] $INFO[container(5000).ListItem.TVshowtitle][/TV][PATH]$INFO[container(5000).ListItem.filenameandpath][/PATH])</onclick>
<onclick>Dialog.Close(354)</onclick>
<thumb>icons/icon_osd_subtitles.png</thumb>
<label>287</label>
</item>

Replace OpenSubtitles occurrences with PeriscopeSubtitles like:

<item>
<controlid>9008</controlid>
<visible>!IsEmpty(container(5000).ListItem.TVShowTitle) + !IsEmpty(container(5000).ListItem.FileNameAndPath) + !container(5000).ListItem.property(IsInternetStream)</visible>
<onclick>RunScript(special://xbmc/scripts/PeriscopeSubtitles/default.py, [TV]$INFO[container(5000).ListItem.Season] $INFO[container(5000).ListItem.Episode] $INFO[container(5000).ListItem.TVshowtitle][/TV][PATH]$INFO[container(5000).ListItem.filenameandpath][/PATH])</onclick>
<onclick>Dialog.Close(354)</onclick>
<thumb>icons/icon_osd_subtitles.png</thumb>
<label>287</label>
</item>

3. Save the file

4. Start Boxee and watch a TV Show, bring up the OSD and press the subtitle button. If you did everything right you should see a popup from the PeriscopeSubtitles script.

boxee-periscope's Issues

Using periscope as a separate module

Hi,

I'm the developer of periscope, I'd love to have better integration of 
boxee-periscope and periscope.

What I'd love to see is periscope and boxee-periscope as separate 
application. This would allow your users to gain from updates to periscope 
(new websites, fixes, ...) while you make the integration between periscope 
and boxee. And if you have improvements to bring to periscope, everyone 
could enjoy them.

For instance, I've committed upgrades to periscope this week-end, by 
separating the projects, your boxee-periscope project would instantly gain 
the improvements.

I'm open to improve the API's of periscope to better suit your needs and to 
package your application for Ubuntu.

If you're interested in closer cooperation, contact me admin [AT] 
getmesubs.com

Thanks
