    88== How to request a new user agent ==
    9 According to the [wiki:XMLRPC API documentation], you need a !UserAgent string, if you will not fill valid !UserAgent, you will get error.
    109
    11 ONLY for testing and developing purposes you can use special user agent "!TemporaryUserAgent". Never use this UA as default/public/in production code, we periodically change this and your APP will stop work! Also don't abuse usage of this test user agent.
    12 ''!TemporaryUserAgent have limit 5 search results only, so you need to register your own User Agent, !TemporaryUserAgent is used just for developing your code in meantime, until you register your own User Agent.''
     10!OpenSubtitles.org API is deprecated and not possible to register new user agents anymore, we plan to turn off !OpenSubtitles.org API by the end of 2023. Please use new, stable ready-to-use [https://www.opensubtitles.com/docs/api/html/index.htm Open Subtitles REST API] instead.
    1311
    14 IF you need to download bulk sets of subtitles, User Agent will not help you. There is [https://www.opensubtitles.org/en/support#vip limitation] per day for downloads per IP/User.
    15 
    16 For registering your own user agent follow these instructions:
    17 
    18 Please first register as an user on www.opensubtitles.org, if you will ask for UA as not registered, your mail will be ignored. You can choose your own useragent name (there is not guarantee you will have it, because somebody could register same name of UA before you), and please choose  version number as required. An example of a valid !UserAgent (you pass it there with version!) in XML-RPC would be something like: '''My Application v0.1''' (please avoid using a weird version numbering, such as v2r1, because we're parsing version using regexp).
    19 
    20 IMPORTANT: If you are developing wrapper/module/script, which will use OTHER DEVELOPERS, never put there your !UserAgent there as default. It is important, every application/program/script will have own UA.
    21 
    22 Please fill the following form and email it to: admin at opensubtitles.org with the subject "Register User Agent Request". You will then get a confirmation mail, we are adding UAs manually yet, so it can take couple of days, if you think it is taking too long, contact us again.
