No need to excuse :)
Image subtitles aren't possible at the moment, so Hebrew doesn't work yet.
We need to see if we can somehow integrate this into Kodi (I believe that this needs some core changes)

Hi asciidisco, why there's no plugin.video.netflix thread on Kodi forum?
It's not like it's illegal?! Just users with Netflix account can use it.

I have posted the problem with the subtitle there and someone commented that he didn't hear about it.

Any news on this one? It is a real bummer not to have subtitle support for all languages, since the module is otherwise working perfectly!
Judging from the replies on the thread posted above, it looks like native kodi support is there already (?) and it's a matter of the addon to support it.
Could this be the case?

3%? What do y mean by that? You mean the series?

I still cant see greek subs in this plugin though..

@nemphys

I mean the TV series called "3%", 2nd season (eg. episode 1). You will see that greek subs are available (even with this plugin) and work fine, because Netflix changed them to be text instead of images.

@Haris1977

Hm. I just checked it. You are right.:) But the problem remains with ALL the rest series/movies that are on greek netflix's database. Will they change ALL image subs to txt ? Cause i dont thing so..:(

@nemphys

Yes, it's a bummer. I don't think image subs will ever be implemented, though, so don't get your hopes up. This is a very old issue and does not seem easy to solve by any means.
At least we will have greek subs working from now on :-)

@Haris1977

Well thanks. So our only hopes - i guess - lie in @asciidisco to find a way to implement image based subs to his plugin. Keeping our fingers crossed even though - as you said - it s difficult..

@Haris1977

I ve found a way to have ALL (text and image based) greek subs enabled but it s very buggy and cumbersome. See here for more info #361

Hello.
I think I have a solution for this issue.
Try adding 'webvtt-lssdh-ios8' to the list of profiles in manifest_request_data (MSL.py). Netflix should then provide you a manifest with a downloadable text-based XML textTrack. You'll need to parse this into a suitable format for Kodi. I'm not familiar with the Kodi code, otherwise I'd offer a patch. :-)

Plz check this version here https://www101.zippyshare.com/v/GGDe4CXN/file.html to see if greek subtitles do appear or not. I can't try it my own as at this time i do not have a netflix account

Thanks

Hi, This file is not working anymore, use this new one, and the subtitles will work for you in Greek language for all the movies and TV shows.

Hi, 'webvtt-lssdh-ios8' already added to Netflix plugin and to inputstream.adaptive from version 0.13.16, and you can use the subtitles in all of the available languages.

@Haris1977

Oh..:-o

Does this mean that greek subs have been completely fixed for new and older tv shows as well?

Because if this is the case this thread should be closed

Yes, old and new TV shows will work just perfect for you with Greek subtitles.
