[mythtv-users] User Job to rip subtitles from each program

[David Crawford]

Ok thanks,

The extractor script I'm using works fine right now though so I'm thinking
of just adding the rename script.

Just to check, to get this to work can i copy the script you wrote in there
and make python script with it? where would the format script go?
and say if i ran as a user job could i run it after the extractor script?

current command that works is:

python /home/dave/uksub2srt/uksub2srt.py -i "%DIR%/%FILE%" -o
/home/subtitles/"%FILE%".srt

is there anyway i can include the script to rename the subtitle file in
that command, or would it be better just to run a separate script after?

Cheers!
