There was a time the built-in VLSub wasn't built-in and I remember at some point it was abandoned and then picked up again. Nowadays it's working again as intended, no more freezes or invalid login. Still has the bug where the next video in a queue picks up the good subtitles but it downloads the subtitle for the previous video. I googled vlsub opensubtitles not working and I still find relevant threads https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?t=152485 https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?t=152485 I have been using opensubtitles since they opened the site though and I couldn't really tell when the problem appeared and disappeared.

but you present your opinion as if it would be required now, while I use VLsub in VLC FOR YEARS without anyone asking me for long/pwd, so not sure what's your deal but you are clearly trying to mislead other based on maybe many years old experience, while reality for many years is that nobody asks you for login/pwd in VLsub and yes, it is still sometimes freezing or has issues, but not sure what you expect from service you don't pay anything for, not even in forms of ads if you use it through VLsub

  Another random thread where someone has a problem with VLC and opensubtitles login password: https://www.reddit.com/r/VLC/comments/aqvzlm/unable_to_work_subtitles/ https://www.reddit.com/r/VLC/comments/aqvzlm/unable_to_work_... It's from my boy Andrew from the anti-vlsub-opensubtitles cell #3948 in Wichita. Thanks for outing us, we have to rebrand our whole operation now and update banners and usernames, etc. We were so close to convincing everyone to stop using vlsub and opensubtitles :(. /s > so not sure what's your deal but you are clearly trying to mislead other based on maybe many years old experience, while reality for many years is that nobody asks you for login/pwd in VLsub

next time read at least your own 2 years old link, it was caused by him using VPN, if he switched off VPN he didn't need to login anywhere, so no, even two years ago you didn't have to login in vlsub unless you use VPN for some strange reason

  > you didn't have to login in vlsub unless you use VPN for some strange reason So, you don't have to login unless you have to login. Got it. Also, this: https://github.com/exebetche/vlsub#2013-09-05-version-0910 https://github.com/exebetche/vlsub#2013-09-05-version-0910 > 2013-09-05 (version 0.9.10) > Add possibility to set opensubtitles.org username/password in config menu to avoid download limit to unlogged users You can add this to the list of reasons you needed username/password for vlsub at some point, when you hit their download limit. Which is something that used to happen a lot with fansubs.
