All Subtitle plugins are not downloading subtiltes

Hi ,

i’m using OSMC 18 on RP3 .
after upgrade , all subtilte plugins is not working .
i even tried formatting the SD , re-intsall 18 OSMC from scratch , but still have the same issue .

i mainly use subscene for downloading files .
any clue ? why all subtitle plugins are not working ?

Since you are the only report of the issue, without logs we have no way of speculating.

Hi ,

i have uploaded the logs , and can be found here :slight_smile:

Well… You didn’t follow the linked and clear instructions on enabling debug logging and attempting to replicate the problem you are having before creating the logs. So being unable to see a failed attempt to acquire subtitles, they aren’t very useful in directly seeking the source of your problems.

They do seem to indicate a pretty significant problem with connecting to remote internet addresses. This may possibly be an issue with your DNS config/provider. It’s highly possible that resolving this connectivity issue may resolve the rest of your problems.

Hi ,

thanks for the instructions .
i have enabled debug logging , rebooted the PI , then tried searching for subtitles .
new logs can be found here

regarding DNS , if there is any issues with my DNS , why everything is working fine in KODI except subtitles ?
i can install new addons , download new skins , and even upload the logs , which means DNS is working fine , i presume .

i have examined the logs , seen the following :slight_smile:

from withing the OSMC cmd , it can reach and ping subscene :

osmc@osmc:~$ ping www.subscene.com

note : i have changed the DNS in OSMC to google DNS , and still have the same issue .

From your web browser, try: https://subscene.com/subtitles/title?q=Zodiac&r=true

I get not found for Zodiac. If I manually search, it finds 2 shows by the same name.

seems issue is related to subscene itself .

removed the official plugin , installed the modified one , and it works now .
