Usage
XBMC Subtitles is activated by pressing the subtitle button on the OSD (on-screen display). To bring up the OSD press M while playing/pausing video in fullscreen mode (toggle with Tab ⇆).
To be able to use the add-on you need to enable it at:
- System -> Appearance -> Skin -> Settings -> Add-on Shortcuts -> Video OSD -> Subtitle Add-on
XBMC Subtitles can be set to automatically download (when pressing the subtitle button) the first synced subtitle if you enable Auto download first "sync" subtitle. Even though a synced subtitle is downloaded according to the add-on it's not always in sync. You can then either press the subtitle button again to manually select a different subtitle/provider or change the subtitle offset.
To bind the add-on to a key use ActivateWindow(SubtitleSearch)
in the keyboard.xml file. (This was previously RunScript(script.xbmc.subtitles)
before v13 Gotham.
