Hello,

I have just released version 18.3 of subs2srs.

Download subs2srs v18.3 via SourceForge

Enhancements and Bug Fixes:

1) (Windows version) Upgraded ffmpeg to revision 21566.

2) Created a version 18.3 release for Linux/Mac users. However, due to unresolved issues, the preview feature has been disabled.

3) Fixed the null pointer exception that occurred when the "Check Actors" button on the Advanced Subtitle Options dialog was clicked.

v19. If you have a spare flux capacitor and some plutonium, you won't even have to wait!

OMG, subs2srs works on Mac? That's awesome!

Thanks for all the work you put into this.　どうもありがとうございます！

I can't say enough about how cool it is. 　I've been using the pre-made Death-Note deck, learning vocab from these decks is SO much better than boring text-books!
As soon as I get my macbook working again I'm going to try this out!

I'm also having problems running it on OS X (Snow Leopard). I've tried both the binary image of mono 2.6.1 and the macports build (2.4.3). Back to the VM for me...

Here's a stacktrace from mono 2.6.1 and also a crash report http://pastebin.ca/1804458

Thanks for the link Asriel.

Should the file I download from that be a .exe? The file I'm getting has no extension, and can't be opened by anything on my Mac. I put it in the same directory as the subs2srs.exe and then ran the terminal command. The subs2srs program opens up properly (hurray) but when I select the Video directory it crashes on me (boo ).

Any ideas?

PS.

System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: ApplicationName='ffmpeg', CommandLine='-i "/Users/David/Desktop/Temp Playlist/Tokyo DOGS ep01 (704x396 XviD).avi"', CurrentDirectory=''
  at System.Diagnostics.Process.Start_noshell (System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo startInfo, System.Diagnostics.Process process) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0

Is the first few lines of the error I got.

"install in $PATH" means just put the "ffmpeg" file into the same directory as subs2srs.exe

Not unless "." is in your path. To check, type "echo $PATH". This will show you all of the directories that your system looks through in order to locate an executable. The "." will usually be at the end of the path.

That is an unhandled exception meaning that susbs2srs can't find "ffmpeg" in any of the directories shown when you typed "echo $PATH" (I think).

Also, ffmpeg must be named "ffmpeg". No extension and no "X".

All that said, I've never personally tested subs2srs on a Mac platform so I an unable to write more detailed instructions or verify that Mono on the Mac is actually up to snuff.

Ok, so I managed to find somewhere to download the ffmpg.exe and I put it in /bin (one of the directories listed by "echo $PATH").

Having done that, I opened subs2srs again and this time it didn't crash when I selected the video directory!

...except it did crash when I hit the "go" button to start the process

This was the error code

That's fair enough, I appreciate that you've even gone to the effort of creating a Mac port when you don't have one. Hopefully though the error message I posted above will be helpful, and the problem is a simple fix *fingers crossed*.

@blackmacros: Well there's your problem right there, the filename is unknown. Make the filename known and you're good. /expert

Oops, no, unfortunately it was just a typo in my post. It's named ffmpeg on my computer (and I made sure to remove the .exe extension like you said)

EDIT: I'm still not sure whether I've followed the readme instructions correctly. I see that the instructions tell you to download Mono and Mono Winforms, but I haven't been able to find anywhere to download Mono Winforms. Is it included in the Mono package that I downloaded? I mention this because the error message seems to mention "Windows Forms" so I thought it might be something to do with Mono Winforms.

Winforms comes with Mono, but I think you have to do something to get it working: http://www.mono-project.com/WinForms_Ge … rted_Guide

Aha thanks cb! The solution seems so close I can taste it!

...but uh...how exactly do I set an environment variable? Is it a terminal command?

And thanks for that link nest0r, it seems from looking at it that Winforms should already be installed.

Prior to launching subs2srs, type:
MONO_MWF_MAC_FORCE_X11=1

If you don't want to type that every time, add the following to $HOME/.bash_profile:
MONO_MWF_MAC_FORCE_X11=1
export MONO_MWF_MAC_FORCE_X11

Edit: you beat me to it

Also make sure that there are ONLY subtitle files in the directory that you entered for Subs1.

Type this into your shell window:

ffmpeg -ab 96k -vn -y -i input.avi output.mp3

where input.avi is your video file.

Does it produce a file called output.mp3? If not, ffmpeg won't work for your video. In this case, extract the audio (as an mp3) with some other program and enter this mp3 in the "Audio..." field of the "Generate Audio Clips:" section.
