= Subtitles API = == Introduction to OSDb == [[PageOutline(2, XMLRPC API Methods)]] [[PageOutline(1, Table of Contents)]] We decided use [http://www.xmlrpc.com/ XMLRPC] (see [http://www.xmlrpc.com/spec spec] and [http://www.xmlrpc.com/directory/1568/implementations implementations]) as default API for [http://www.opensubtitles.org opensubtitles.org]. Our API supports many methods, so there should not be a problem code some nice applications. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML-RPC Wikipedia]: XML-RPC is a very simple protocol, defining only a handful of data types and commands, and the entire description can be printed on two pages of paper.

He starts typing and this method returns the count of existing subtitles for the given languages. Then he selects a movie or series and a !SearchSubtitles by IDMovieIMDB is performed. $sublanguageid can be multiple languages (eg.: "eng,por,pob"). The results are ordered by popularity of movie. The !SubtitlesFound is always higher than 0. This method is not suitable to implement in an Upload function of a program (because only existing IMDb IDs are returned that have suitable subtitles). $sublanguageid is optional. If not specified, $sublanguage == 'all'. In that case, suggestions are made for All languages. So it is a good idea to pass user-defined subtitle language(s) here.
