SubZero

Watches your TV show video files... and adds subtitle by ahuh (2016)

What is it ?

SubZero is a subtitle autodownloader for TV show video files.

Features :

• Watches your incoming video files folder for new files to process

• Filename analysis with information extraction (TV show name, season, episodes, title, release group) from multiple patterns (see examples below)

• Support of subleecher plugins, to fetch subtitles from multiple web sites

• Support of multiple languages subtitles : if it does not find subtitle for the first specified language, it tries to find subtitle for the next language

• Support of post-processing plugin, launched after subtitle retrieval. By default, you may move video and subtitle files to an output folder (supporting TV show name / season / episode token replacement), and merge both files as MKV file (with MKVMerge)

• Report and technical logs (with log4j)

• By default, SubZero is a SysTray application, but it can run as a background process with no GUI (daemon)

Supported input file name patterns (examples)

TV.Show.Name.S01E15.Episode.Title.TV.x264-ReleaseGroup.mkv
TV Show Name 1x15 Episode Title TV x264-ReleaseGroup.mkv
TV_Show_Name_115_Episode_Title_TV_x264-ReleaseGroup.mkv
TV.Show.Name.S01E15E16-ReleaseGroup.mkv
TV Show Name 1x15x16-ReleaseGroup.mkv
TV_Show_Name_11516-ReleaseGroup.mkv

Prerequisites

• Java 1.7 installed (JRE or JDK)
• MKVMerge installed (if used as post-processing plugin)

For all operating systems:

• Executable JAR (double-click on it), in 'SysTray' mode

  SubZero.jar

• Execute JAR from java command line, in 'SysTray' mode

  java -jar Subzero.jar

• Execute JAR from java command line, in 'Headless' mode (no GUI)

  java -Dheadless -jar SubZero.jar

• Execute JAR from java command line, using the 'SubZero.properties' located in the specified config dir

How to configure

At first execution, if not present the 'SubZero.properties' will be generated in the same directory as 'SubZero.jar' or 'SubZero.exe'. If a '-DconfigDir' is specified, this directory is used instead. Configure the file 'SubZero.properties' (see the file content for help).
