Not working

[gfernandop]

Hello nopium,

Congratulations for your idea!!!
It is a wonderful plugin however it is not working anymore...
I would appreciate too much if you help me to put it working again.
I was trying to use the extension aiming to improve my english skills translating some excerpts of the subtitles from english to portuguese when needed.
When I try to activate the plugin I receive a message tolding that the file doesn't exist:

"Could not load subtitles :(
Make sure you have here appears the filename"

Could you help me to use your extension?

Thank you very much

It won't work because of this: https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/8097

Sorry but if the script doesn't work because there are no API permissions for google translate, how does the script below for POTPLAYER work very well??
Post the script maybe you can understand and improve the script for VLC and make the translation API work.
