I want to change the website where I download subtitles. What should I change?

I noticed that there is a limit to the number of times I can download subtitles. If I want to switch to another subtitle website, how should I configure it, such as " https://assrt.net "

Unfortunately you can't. Our subtitle downloader currently only supports opensubtitles.com, as it's the only service with sensible API for searching and downloading subtitles. Supporting any other service would have to rely on parsing the HTML output of their website and acting like a download manager, which is tons of work, prone to breaking, and overall high maintenance feature that I don't have time or will to work on.

Sorry for the extra work this will cause you. https://github.com/AssrtOSS/mpv-assrt?tab=readme-ov-file I found the desired function implementation in this repository, if I want to replace it with this part. Just asking if such an operation is possible, because most of opensubtitles.com has English subtitles and very few Chinese subtitles. Sorry to bother you.

I implemented an assrt subtitle download script that can use the uosc menu: https://github.com/dyphire/mpv-sub-assrt

It would be better if uosc could implement this: #773 (comment)

There's no need for the download_subtitles_command anymore. If you're implementing an alternative subtitle downloader, you can use the overwrite-binding command to replace the uosc's one. Example:

mp.commandv('script-message-to', 'uosc', 'overwrite-binding', 'download-subtitles', 'script-message-to  sub_assrt sub-assrt')

Both the uosc/download-subtitles binding, as well as the button in the subtitles menu will then trigger this command.

Perfect. It works.
