VLSub: VLC addon for finding subtitles for Windows Linux and Mac OS X

Well, you don't have to open a website every time you want to download subtitles for your movies. VLSUB is an excellent tool if you are using VLC as your default player in your pc or laptop to download subtitles directly from the software app itself.

After placing the extension file in the right directory and location, you can just open up VLC and go to View and select VLSub. Then, you will get an options to search using file name or hash file. Filename has worked best in my case.


I just found the source myself from this: Link Source

Installation process for windows 64 bit(worked in my machine):
1. Download this file and extract it: Extenstion File VLSub.zip
2. Move the "VLSub,lua" file to %ProgramFiles%\VideoLAN\VLC\lua\extensions\



3. Close VLC and restart it again.
4. All done. To look for subtitles, in VLC, go to 'VIEW' and Select "VLSUB". You can take it from there then.

FROM THE source:

INSTALLATION:
- click on the download button below
- save the archive and extract the file "vlsub.lua"
- create a directory "extensions" at this location and put the file "vlsub.lua" inside:
Windows (all users): %ProgramFiles%\VideoLAN\VLC\lua\extensions\
Windows (current user): %APPDATA%\vlc\lua\extensions\
Linux (all users): /usr/lib/vlc/lua/extensions/
Linux (current user): ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/extensions/
Mac OS X (all users): /Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/share/lua/extensions/
Mac OS X (current user): /Users/%your_name%/Library/Application Support/org.videolan.vlc/lua/extensions/

...or use the installer below if you're on Windows 7 (32 or 64)

To start the extension click on View > VLSub or Vlc > Extensions > VLSub on Mac OS.
