MPD Subtitles
[MPD Subtitles (AUR)] is a Python application, written out of boredom (and out of a yearning for something like Crimsonsoft's [MiniLyrics] for Linux), that downloads and displays Simple LRC-format synchronized (with extensions for color, positioning, timeout, and voices) lyrics and captions for tracks you play in MPD. It also comes with an LRC editor to write and synchronize lyrics, an uploader to submit them to an mpd-lrcserver database, and the mpd-lrcserver.php script to host your own LRC lyric database.
Here are a few screenshots of it in action:
By default, it uses [wintervenom.mycrosoft.us] and [wintervenom.brandonw.net/Misc] as the database servers (which haven't but a few songs at the moment).
MPD Subtitles is currently in alpha. Bugs, improvements, tips, and criticism are much welcome.

Subtitles are not getting displayed while playing movies
Hi,
Recently I have upgraded with Max OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. After this upgrade whenever I play movies in my VLC player, I am getting a message as "freetype: failed to load font file /System/Library/Fonts/LucidaGrande.dfont" and then the subtitles are not displayed.
Can someone advise how to resolve it? I tried to download LucidaGrande.dfont from internet. But I couldnt find one. Please help.
Thanks.
RaviHello, Ravi & welcome to the forums.
Lucida Grande is included with Mac OS X.
Check and validate all of your fonts with Apple's Font Book (look in the Applications folder). Search for Lucida Grande to be sure it was properly installed. Find and remove duplicates as well.
Also, don't hesisate to perform wholesale deletion of old and/or little used fonts - be skeptical of anything that has come from Office 2008, including those related to an Equation Editor installation.
Finally, be sure all the apps you are using are compatible with SnowLeopard. Check with their authors for updates. -
[SOLVED] unable to play mp3 or flac files in mpd, .dts files play fine
I had a perfect running mpd setup before I tried to fiddle around with some dependancies to get xbmc-svn to compile without errors. I installed some AUR packages (ffmpeg-svn, x264-git, libva-sds, libvpx, libid3tag).
After that I started to experience trouble with mpd, it start fine and says it plays audio files just fine but whenever i play a mp3 or flac file the progress bar just looks like it's playing the file but I hear no sound. Whenever I play a .dts file i hear the sound correct.
I'm very curious to why this happends.
I rolled back the packages mentioned above but the issue remains unsolved.
My setup: pc is connected to receiver by hdmi cable using the latest alsa version with digital passthrough over hdmi, currently using mpd-git from AUR

Whenever I run xbmc using the hdmi digital output it just plays mp3 and flac files without problems.
Anyone any clues on how to solve this issue?

Fields missing in MPD report after change to structure and program
I have been working on a consistency report for transaction MPD.
I had created a structure in SE11 for handling the data. it was all working, but then i had to go and change the name of the fields in the structure. Now those fields are missing from the report.
When i step through the debugger, all the fields are being populated correctly, but these fields are not displayed on screen. if i change the field names back in the structure and change the code for populating these fields, they appear okay.
i have created a custom implementation within BAdi MPD_WKB_REPORTING.
i have checked the config and it all points to my Z Structure and Z Table Type. I have logged off and logged back on! made sure my code is saved and activated...
any ideas on how i can display these new fields names/values?
Just for clarity, the field name has changed. not the linked data type.thanks for your response, however those notes and program have not done anything to assist my issue.
i have found the anwser now!
within the BAdi was a method i had to amend: IF_EX_MPD_WKB_REPORTING~GET_ALV_PARAMETERS
all fixed now! -

If the songs were purchased from itunes, I suggest that you delete the tracks from your itunes library and move to trash (providing you live in a country that permits redownloading). See http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12283.

[SOLVED] Problem with MPD and ALSA
Hello, I'm having problems with mpd using alsa output.
My alsa system works, I can play mp3 using mplayer -ao alsa, and flash plugin plays sound, my user (and also mpd user)is in the audio group.
But then mpd can't open the alsa device.
If I tell mpd to autodetect audio, it can't find anything:
(Running as root to see output, if using /etc/rc.d/mpd start, it just fails)
output: No "audio_output" defined in config file
output: Attempt to detect audio output device

and if I set up a basic alsa config...

It starts, but then playing anything:

I tried with different device and mixer settings and the error is always the same. It can't open alsa device.
Any Ideas?
Thank you.
Last edited by xzakox (2011-09-22 20:04:33)Check that mpd is really being run as the mpd user, and that id lists audio for the mpd user. Also post your whole mpd.conf and the output from amixer when running as the user you run mpd as.

I am trying to import subtitles to Adobe Encore but am getting error messages...
I am trying to import subtitles from a software called Aegisub to Adobe Encore, but i am receiving this error message:
The software that is used to decode the media is not available on this system. Installing the correct decoders for the files you are working with may help to correct the problem.
I have exported the subtitles as an Encore text file but it still won't allow me attach these to my video. I have exported the video from Premiere as an H.264 and that slots into Encore just fine, i just need to use Encore to attach the subtitles.
Can anyone tell me what i might be doing wrong?
Thank you.Thanks Stan. I think this is probably the answer but seeing as i am doing this at work, it is telling me the action was stopped because it needs to be checked by an administrator.
If i manage to succeed, i shall let you know. I was trying to import as an asset, wrongly, so this is probably going to be the solution.
Thank you -
Having a few issues with several programs (tor / mpd / ccm..)
Hey everybody,
I'll arrange this post in 3 parts since I have 3 different kinds of "major" problems or questions .
1st ( tor - privoxy - polipo - iptables )
I somehow found this article in your wiki and therefore tried to get tor and privoxy up and running on my desktop machine, as this didn't work as I hoped it would I searched farther in the wiki and installed and configured (as far as I've thought of) polipo and iptables.
Now I've put all 4 of them in my rc.conf, but somehow some of my http connections don't seem to work in chromium while iptables is running (https works fine though [e.g. archwiki works, youtube doesn't]).
I did everything as suggested in the polipo wiki entry, meaning I changed my /etc/iptables/iptables.rules to
*nat
:PREROUTING ACCEPT [0:0]
:POSTROUTING ACCEPT [0:0]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
-A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -m owner --uid-owner polipo -j ACCEPT
-A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 8123
COMMIT
and removed all proxy settings from my browser - meaning all corresponding flags in the startcommand. I also added "forward / localhost:8123" to the privoxy config and changed the polipo configuration according to the wiki in order to work with tor (the socksParentProxy, socksProxyType part).
now the next problem - that might probably be related to the first - is that my privoxy doesn't load in daemon mode anymore.
I think it's since I've installed polipo that privoxy began to refuse starting together with the other daemons
[usR@machine ~]$ privoxy
Apr 23 00:20:56.459 b75086c0 Fatal error: can't check configuration file '/home/usR/config': No such file or directory
this is the output I get when I try to start privoxy in normal user mode from the terminal, when I try starting the daemon manually (/etc/rc.d/privoxy start) it says
touch: cannot touch `/var/log/privoxy/logfile': Permission denied
chgrp: cannot access `/var/log/privoxy/logfile': Permission denied
chmod: cannot access `/var/log/privoxy/logfile': Permission denied
touch: cannot touch `/var/log/privoxy/jarfile': Permission denied
chgrp: cannot access `/var/log/privoxy/jarfile': Permission denied
chmod: cannot access `/var/log/privoxy/jarfile': Permission denied
Apr 23 00:22:34.490 b76396c0 Fatal error: Cannot setgid(): Insufficient permissions.
[/var/log/privoxy belongs to privoxy:adm]
when I do the same in sudo mode it just fails without displaying an error message..
I added this code to the /etc/rc.d/privoxy executable but I still get this owner conflict error and I have no idea what might be causing it.
if [ ! -d /var/log/privoxy ]
then
mkdir /var/log/privoxy
touch /var/log/privoxy/errorfile
touch /var/log/privoxy/logfile
chown -R privoxy:adm /var/log/privoxy
fi
If the order of the daemons in rc.conf is of any real importance here a copy of my setup
( @polipo @privoxy @syslog-ng !set-hw-addr !iptables @network netfs hddtemp @crond hal dbus @alsa @slim @tor )
2nd ( mpd & mpc )
I'm just wondering if there's a way to output the position of a track in the current playlist combined with a search. since mpc search <type> <query> only prints out full file path and name, but not the position in the playlist so that you could play it with mpc play. I thought of a method to print out the whole list with mpc playlist and pipe this output into a listing program, than grep out the song I'm looking for all that in a little bash script, to replace mpc search.
Is there an integrated mpc search function that works the way I imageine it and my idea therefore redundant, or if not, is it realizable the way I picture it; does such a listing program exist?
3rd ( cairo-compmgr )
Since I'm already posting here I thought I'd mention my older problem which I still couldn't solve.
1st) I need to start cairo-compmgr(-git) in sudo mode to be able to edit any settings or activate the gui in any way. how do I automatically start the program on startup in sudo mode? I tried editing ~/.fluxbox/startup & ~/.fluxbox/init, even tried adding it in /etc/rc.d/ and /etc/rc.conf in order to start it as a daemon (lol, noob) but none of that worked properly obviously Any ideas? I don't want to start it manually and "waste" a terminal window for that every time I boot.
2nd) I can change opacity (transparency) in both versions only per hotkey, and when I do so the settings don't get saved, they even get reset to normal opacity as soon as another window gets selected. does anybody know if there's a config file or any way to save opacity settings for certain windows & programs, so that they automatically get loaded when cairo starts and stay applied until it gets closed?
[or generally: how do I configure the Plugins? ]
the last "problem" which occurs only with cairo-compmgr-git:
When I rightclick the ccm icon in the task bar and disable the composite desktop, the whole program kills itself oO
In the old version the option "Composite desktop"'s box just got un-checked and I could easily restart ccm by rightclicking the logo again and re-enabling the "Composite desktop" option.
Any clues on that by any chance?
I'm using Fluxbox by the way, if that's of any importance for any of the problems. hope I didn't forget any important information if so please remind me
Would be thankful for any kind of help
have a nice weekend
deF
//edit:
concernig the tor / privoxy problem, I managed getting all the daemons to start up at bootup again, my iptables situation remains the same though.
I went through all the config files again and played around with chown and chmod a little and for now the system is stable, everytime I reboot all the daemons start without any problems.
but when i start chromium with --proxy-server=localhost:8118 now, I get the following error message
The following error occurred while trying to access http://torcheck.xenobite.eu/index.php?:
504 Connect to torcheck.xenobite.eu:80 failed: SOCKS error: network unreachable
Generated Sat, 23 Apr 2011 04:49:08 CEST by Polipo on archzor.localdomain:8118.
notably with all programs running now, tor, polipo, privoxy (and by now dansguardian as well)..
I'm tired so I'll go asleep now, maybe I'll find something tomorrow in the logfiles or whatever, so far:
every kind of help is still very appreciated

Last edited by deF291 (2011-04-23 03:13:48)okay I've finally been able to get tor and all the other programs to work according to my plan the only thing that's still making problems is that iptables doesn't work as I want it to, when I start chromium without proxy settings privoxy doesn't seem to forward the information to polipo.. do I need to add another rule to iptables.rules in order for the program to know it has to reroute the information again or how can I get this to work? and is there any way to run rtorrent with proxy support?
anyway, problem 2 and 3 are still to be solved.
and does anybody know where i can get a good dansguardian blacklist that was not designed for 6 year old children and for which I don't need to subscribe? I'm still getting these partypoker popups -.-
//e: with iptables it's the same thing as described in the first post. https works, http doesnt. I get the output "Invalid header received from client." on http sites. still no idea why though.. (and the https-version of torcheck.xenubite says i'm tor unprotected while starting the browser with iptables)

Why do I get subtitles on Netflix movies? I have switched it off in settings but the Spanish sub-titles still appear.
The movie itself has subtitles in it. You won't be able to disable them. They're basically hard coded into the movie.
-
Hello, To start off, I have been a member of iTunes for awhile and have been content with them, until now. I am legally disabled due to a head injury that happened when I was a teenager. I am everyday functional, but I do need closed captioning(cc) or subtitles to understand the movie or TV show. I have purchased lots of movies and TV shows from iTunes. As any new business does, iTunes has updated itself and added features for their customers. They figure out what the consumers want and like. I started to realize that iTunes added subtitles for the deaf and disabled, but as I was told by Apple there was nothing I could do about reloading those already purchased movies, to include the cc or subtitles. Since then, I don't use iTunes and it's a real shame because I love electronics and it's technology. I wish Apple would work with the consumer. Why can't I reload the iTunes movies on my PC (Win7) with the subtitles, which they now offer, but didn't when I purchased them? To me, that is wrong to do that to a customer. Now that they are including cc/subtitles , everyone is able to enjoy iTunes and not be excluded. Someone__please explain this to me. Thank you for reading this.
Carrie-Untill the movie studios agree to allow past downloads of movies outside of the US, you aill always have to have a copy of purchased movies on your computer. If not, you will have to buy them again if you delete them.

How can I export speech analysis text with imbedded timecodes for the creation of subtitle files?
I found a script that allows you to export all your text layers with time codes as a .srt subtitle file. However, instead of multiple text layers, I have only one: essentially the meta data from Premiere speech analysis that with the aid of a different script, is being used at a "subtitle layer". Essentially, I'm trying to use this data to create a .srt file so I can create actual subtitles, not this hybrid animation/text layer.
Here is the script I used to export the text layer to .srt:
Subtitle Exporter v01
Script by Philipp Grolle
www.display-artists.de
Instructions:
Select all the Text Layers you want to export, run the script, and save the file as .srt
Attention: The Script has not been debugged or testet. Try it on your own risk!
// get all the selected Layers
var theComp = app.project.activeItem;
var alleLayer = theComp.selectedLayers;
// count how many layers are selected
var anzahlLayer = alleLayer.length;
// Enable the line below if you want to change the order of your text (ascending / descending)
/* alleLayer.reverse(); */
// prompt to save file
var theFile = File.saveDialog("Save the text file.", "untitled.txt", "TEXT txt");
// if user didn't cancel...
if (theFile != null) {
// open file for "w"riting,
theFile.open("w","TEXT","????");
// Do it for all the selected Layers
for (x = 0; x < anzahlLayer; x++)
// get In- and Outpoint of the current Layer and convert to timecode (00:00:00:00)
var timecodeIn = timeToCurrentFormat(alleLayer[x].inPoint, 25);
var timecodeOut = timeToCurrentFormat(alleLayer[x].outPoint, 25);
// split the value of the inPoint; converting last 2 characters (frames) to milliseconds, and finally join it again with comma instead of colon
var str_in= timecodeIn;
var timeCodeAnfang_in=str_in.slice(0,8);
var timeCodeEnde_in=str_in.slice(9,11);
var millisek_in = timeCodeEnde_in*40; // 1000 milliseconds divided by 25 fps = 40
var zusammen_in = timeCodeAnfang_in +"," + millisek_in;
//split the value of the outPoint; converting last 2 characters (frames) to milliseconds, and finally join it again with comma instead of colon
var str_out= timecodeOut;
var timeCodeAnfang_out=str_out.slice(0,8);
var timeCodeEnde_out=str_out.slice(9,11);
var millisek_out = timeCodeEnde_out*40;
var zusammen_out = timeCodeAnfang_out +"," + millisek_out;
//counter for the number above the timecode (in the results)
var zaehler = x+1;
//writing the results to file
theFile.write(zaehler);
theFile.write("\r\n");
theFile.write(zusammen_in);
theFile.write(" --> ");
theFile.write(zusammen_out);
theFile.write("\r\n");
theFile.write(alleLayer[x].property("Source Text").value);
theFile.write("\r\n\n");
// close the text file
theFile.close();
// open text file in default app
theFile.execute();
As I am only using one text layer, it shows me only one continious subtitle in the .srt file. Does anyone have any suggestions?I should add that I myself am not particularly familiar with scripts or scripting, I'm merely trying all possible solutions to my problem and this seems to be a good approach. Any help would be much appreciated.

How to load external subtitles in mov files (in QT)?
Hi everybody,
When I play an avi file, QT is able to load external subtitles (I've Perian installed). However, this week, I downloaded a file from apple, saved it as a mov file and created a subtitle file for it. Then, I put both files in the same directory and used the same name for them (one .mov and the other .srt). When I play it (with QT), the subtitle file doesn't load. Does anybody know what is happening? Is is a problem with mov files? Or is it a problem with files downloaded from apple (some kind of lock?!)?

Different subtitles in one clip
I'm trying to add subtitles to a movie in iMovie9. I found the text-tool to do it, but I fail to break the subtitles into segments so that they change every 10 secs or so. Can anyone help?
I would recommend breaking your video clip into segments that last as long as you want the subtitle to run.
To do this, select the 10 seconds (or so) of the clip in your project (so that the yellow border is around the selection) and right-click/Split Clip. Repeat for all the clips you need. Then add the titles to these clips.
