Subtitle Search Aids In Finding Movie Subtitles

We have reviewed our fair share of subtitle downloaders in the past from applications like Subs Grabber and Sub Downloader to sophisticated programs like Renaissance that can scan a local directory for movies and find subtitles on the Internet for them.

Subtitle Search is another program for finding and download subtitles from the Internet. It supports several subtitle databases including the popular sites Open Subtitles and Subtitle Resource.

The main program basically works by entering a movie title or partial title into the search form in the program’s interface.

Subtitle Search will then perform searches on various supported websites to find the movie and corresponding subtitles.

The subtitle downloader usually populates the results listing quickly. Each result is listed with its title, language, number of CDs, rating and source.

Subtitle Search will also pull information about the movie from IMDB including its cover, votes, rating and link. All it takes to download a specific subtitle is to left-click it in the results. It is also possible to open the page it is hosted on by right-clicking the subtitle instead.

Users can also perform a search on IMDB right from the program’s interface which might come in handy if a movie title cannot be remembered.

There are two additional features that we would like to mention in this short review. The first is the ability to automatically download movie trailers if they are found on supported websites. The second to monitor the subtitle databases for subtitles that are currently not hosted there.

Subtitle Search is an Open source software program for the Windows operating system that can be downloaded directly from the project’s website at Sourcefoge.
