This program is no longer under active development, though it still functions well. By default, they are sourced from Open Subtitles. Media Player Classic: Built-in support for auto-downloading subtitles.

It's unclear which sites they're sourced from. BS.Player: Built-in support for auto-downloading subtitles, available in both the Free and Pro versions.Happily, a handful of free media players support the ability to search and download subtitles right within the app, and some can even automatically find subtitles based on the filename of what you're watching.

However, if you prefer subtitles for everything, then downloading them by hand every time can get cumbersome. I'm going to be moving soon and need to be able to find an alternate way to get the CC from the soaps since I won't have cable in my new place for a few weeks.Download Subtitles Faster Through Media Players

I just learned about SRT, which is great, but I haven't found any already made for daytime soaps, only primetime shows. However, it's very old technology that they no longer make and it won't work on online videos. I used an ATI card on a desktop that grabs the closed-captioning from the TV or video. I run this site: and for years we've had transcripts from the daytime soaps (and a few primetime shows). I just know HTML and a few other minor things. Is there any way to extract the SRT from streaming videos without downloading them? Or is there any way to download a streaming video from, say, cbs.com or HULU or iTunes (not Youtube) with the SRT file intact (assuming they use SRT)? Please bear in mind that I'm not really a programmer. I found this, but it seems to be about streaming videos that have been downloaded.
