Subtitle Workshop Classic 6.3.5 + Portable / 7.02 r1 Beta

Solved a problem open projects with diacritial symbols

Project notes are also saved automatically now.

Divided the layout of the Hunspell window in a number of fields.

Added the possibility to select the version of the FFmpeg tools download.

Remove an error regarding the 'preferred audio language': the 'none' item is no longer taken into account.

Hunspell: words with numbers in them and words with all capitals in them are not ignored anymore.

Solved the 'None' audio stream problem, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/discussion/bugs/thread/2eb78bf861/?limit=25#92a

The default shortcuts can be recalled now.

Changing the original or translated charset in the settings menu did not work well. Solved.

The value '0' is allowed now for default subtitle duration, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/54/?limit=25#a48a

The Slovak language is updated for v6.3.4.

Removed the necessity of reloading the subtitle when leaving the settings menu after the subtitle was changed. Now this will only happen when the original charset or translation charset was changed in settings (which requires actual reloading). See https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/54/?limit=25#a48a

Solved a problem in misalignment between projects and single subtitles, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/54/?limit=25#a48a

Added 'All', 'None' and 'Inverse' buttons to error settings 'Check' and 'Fix'.

Changed the order of the items in the 'Tools' menu (more logical now).

If shortcuts ctrl-c, ctrl-v or ctrl-x are not present they are automatically assigned to the corresponding 'Copy', 'Paste' and 'Cut' Edit menu items.

In the 'Tools -> Information and Errors -> Information and Errors' the error type (Error or Warning) was added to the checkboxes text.

Those additions were also added in 'Tools -> Information and Errors -> Settings' in the 'Check for' and 'Fix' lists.

Renamed 'Tools -> Information and errors -> Information and errors' to 'Tools -> Information and errors -> Fix errors manually'.

Renamed 'Tools -> Information and errors -> Settings' to 'Tools -> Information and errors -> Error Settings'.

In the above 'Tools -> Information and errors -> Fix errors manually', only errors/warnings visible in the list are fixed with the 'Fix errors' button (so only if the 'E' resp. the 'W' key is down).

In the same the error/warning types which are disabled (because not checked in 'Tools -> Information and Errors -> Settings -> Check For') but are checked here are now not fixed anymore (see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/discussion/bugs/thread/32d5785c4e/?limit=25#a60
c/9e73).

Changed the layout of the 'Split Subtitle, simple' window for better readability.

Prevent an error when the currently selected language file does not exists any more for some reason, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/discussion/general/thread/a4a903455f/#5716

Join Subtitle: Added the possibility to order the items in the list with an extra up/down button (in addition to drag/drop).

The FFMpeg tools are also found now if their path is in the 'Path' environment variable, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/43/

Handled false UTF8 detections in language and shortcut files better now, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/discussion/general/thread/a4a903455f/#5716

When starting playing the video the waveform audio play is stopped now instead of paused (solved some waveform audio timing problems).

The waveform extraction can also be done now using the VLC video renderer (if present of course). In this case the FFmpeg tools are not needed any more. New translation required: [Settings Waveform] 05=Use FFmpeg for waveform extraction

For hunspell more dictionaries can be downloaded and installed now. New translations required: [Hunspell] InstallDicts=Install Dictionaries DictTitle=Hunspell Dictionaries DictAlreadyInstalled=Already installed DictDelete=Delete DictInstall=Install ListFail=Could not download list DictFail=Could not download dictionary "%s"

Attention: the whole content of the 'Hunspell' folder is new now (important for the users of the 'Portable' version).

Implemented menuItems and shortcut (in the 'File' section) for "An option for CTRL+S to save translations as well as original", see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/45/

Solved: Stuttering GUI after mouse hovering over the seekbar, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/46/

Made the video zoom function work better and more logical, see also https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/47/

Solved: Seekbar and buttons are erased from GUI when zooming in fullscreen (permanently), see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/47/

Removed the "- untranslated subtitle -" default text in untranslated subtitles, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/48/ Additionally also removed the "- empty subtitle -" text that replaced previous text after that was deleted. Additionally also also removed the "Mark untranslated subtitles with color" from the settings menu (untranslated subtitles have no text to color it).

Disabled the stop button when not playing (the button actually only does something if playing, even if it is enabled).

Loading translated subtitles has changed: the time stamp is used now to merge it with the original ones.

Divide lines implemented for the translation (together with the original text), see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/49/

Translations needed: [Divide lines] 10=use original 11=use translation

Shortcuts translations needed: Edit aGlobalNotes Edit the global notes in bigger window Edit aProjectNotes Edit the project notes in bigger window

Solved a calculation problem in 'Divide lines', see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/49/#f900/4697/6b1a Also adapted the layout of the 'Divide Lines' window, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/49/#5817/77c4/60a3/cdae/78bd/f56e/a47f/

Detecting of Overlapping subtitles and subtitles with too short pause is disabled when one of the subtitles is blank.

Solved problem "Surplus dots are added to translated subtitles", see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/52/

Solved a problem in "Search and Replace" for the translation. In translate mode the possibility to choose the characterset has been added.

Disabled now the popup menu for the text edit areas when it is not necessary.

"Smart line adjust automatically" did not work in divide lines. Solved. Additionally this feature can now be switched on or off in the divide lines window too (next to menu settings advanced).

If notes are not shown in the left window then more place is provided for the items still present in the left panel.

Added the possibility to edit notes in a separate larger window (menu Edit, Notes). Shortcuts and 2 buttons are provided.

Solved a problem with "&" in the subtitle text using the alternate rendering mode.

Removed the '&' characters from the buttons on the 'Audio Waveform' window.

Solved the background deviation in the errors window + the unreadable text, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/discussion/general/thread/f7a7cf72f2/?limit=25#

Made sure no audio streams are to be seen in menus when none are detected. Earlier on a erroneous list with default stream names was shown.

UTF8 format is supported also from now on for language files and shortcut language files.

Added item (e.g. for Dutch) to each language file: [General] Language=Nederlands
to the language files: the translation of the language name in the actual language.

The "join subtitles" and "Batch convert" functions now also allow dragging and dropping subtitle files to it.

Organised a cache for the languagenames translations. It would take too much startup time to read all language files to obtain the translation.

Solved: Cancelling the "Load subtitle" modal window did reload the video for no reason, See https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/27/.

Solved: Moving subtitles around doesn't analyze errors in the switched rows, which might lead to faulty error detections, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/28/.

Implemented: The Save subtitle button shouldn't have three dots, as it doesn't open any modal window or any subsequent part of any kind, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/29/.

... viele Kleinheiten
The help is updated.
The language files are updated.

The Search and Search/replace windows are no longer modal. This means you can e.g. edit while the window is visible. The window has been made 'StayOnTop' instead.
After a search in one of above windows the place where the text is found is indicated in the text controls area. You can start an edit right away.
The 'Insert Symbol' and the 'Search/Replace' windows have been made 'StayOnTop'.
Solved crashing when the "last selected subtitle" is out of range after a split followed by giving the original name to the first (splitted) part.
Solved a problem caused by "Splitting subtitles (Simple): the current subtitle (or the found one) will be the first subtitle of part2." in v6.2.6.
The choices in the simple split up window are remembered between sessions.
The message "'Spell check finished. xx change(s) made.'" after a Hunspell check session is replaced by a line at the bottom of the Hunspell window.
Search also finds tags (,, , , , <c:#> and </c>).
BatchConvert works again, the file list is created correctly.
After 'Divide Lines" dashes at the beginning of both parts are only deleted if the "-" on first line in Tools->Information & Errors->Settings->Fix is checked, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/24/.
After 'Divide Lines' both parts are only trimmed if "Enters and spaces at beginning and end" in Tools->Information & Errors->Settings->Unnecessary spaces->Fix is checked, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/24/.
Problem with the nr of characters display when the latter is zero in the 'Divide Lines' window solved, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/24/#143b/3b85/3729/278b.

Corrected an error after trying to read in 'LastChoices.txt' when it contained non ASCII characters (see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/19/#1c41).

Made project files (.stp files) also Unicode capable (saved as UTF8 now).

Up to 100 'recent files' can be remembered now, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/20/.

Splitted up 'Notes' in 'Global' and 'Project'. Translations to be done. See https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/16/. Project notes are saved in the project file (.stp), subtitle notes and global notes are saved in 'Notes.txt'.

Solved a problem with splitted up Notes, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/16/?limit=25#1ecf/3e8d/433e/af99.

The main toolbar is no longer resized, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/13/.

Adapted the 'Search/replace' form: replaced two round buttons ('From the first subtitle' and 'All the subtitle') by 1 checkbox ('From the first subtitle'). Initially 'From the first subtitle' is checked and as soon as the first search action is done, 'From the first subtitle' becomes unchecked, thus allowing to find the next occurance of the search text. This prevents getting stuck with only finding the first occurance. A not found warning is now only given if the search string is not present at all in the subtitles. See https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/21/.

Allowed negative window positions. Important for multiple monitor configuations, with the extra monitor set to the left of the primary one, to allow saved windows positions recalled to the correct monitor. See https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/discussion/general/thread/1272ee2378/?limit=25#
4167/fa3d/b0c7/0f04.

Allowed the Main window and the 'Information and Errors' window to be on different monitors in a multi monitor setup.

Splitting subtitles (Simple): the current subtitle (or the found one) will be the first subtitle of part2 now.

Made the editing panel vertically resizable. See https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/8/ and https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/discussion/feat/thread/56654b29d6/.
Made the left (control) panel horizontally resizable.
Made long text better displayed in the info and errors form, see https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/discussion/general/thread/c189e6afd5/?page=3#4d
7f/2fa4/ef25.
Made the recognition of UTF-8 files also working after starting up via file association.
Made charset selection (orig and translation) take effect right away (subtitle is converted directly after the selection).
Prevented the original subtitle and the translated one to be the same subtitlefile.
Solved 'empty CPS boxes' in the subtitles list (when no selection made what to display there a small empty box was shown). Made the behaviour somewhat more logical.
Adapted the manual concerning the usage of item 'Show CPS boxes (Info and Errors).
The 'recent' opened subtitles or projects are saved now in a separate (UTF8 - Unicode) file: 'Recent.txt' instead of in the SubtitleWorkshop.ini file. This means recent filenames can also contain non ascii -unicode- characters. See https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/12/.
The file 'LastChoices.txt' is saved now as UTF8 file (names in it can also contain non ascii -unicode- characters).
Notes are now saved in UTF8 format (Unicode characters made possible). Notes are saved now in the separate file 'Notes.txt'. See https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/15/ and https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/discussion/bugs/thread/9c1f38d2cf/.
Solved a small error after resizing the colums of the subtitle list.
Added an 'Installation' chapter to the manual.
Made the adaptation to the color chosen for the time line under the Video Preview Panel faster.See https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/tickets/14/.
In the 'Insert Symbol' form, in the Ascii table, the characters according the selected character set are shown now.
Also the chosen characterset is shown now when the ascii table is selected.
Improved the readability of the tables in the 'Insert Symbol' form.
Added several Unicode groups to the 'Insert Symbol' form.
A hint is added to the 'Font size' spinbutton (left bottom corner of forms).

Subtitle Editor derived from version 6.0b, but with UTF-8, audio stream selection, VLC support, Hunspell spellchecker and other improvements and extensions.

Search and Replace window: Changed the caption of the 'Find next' button to 'Search' (the kind of search is defined below that button, see "Search for text in:"). Changed also the caption of choice 'All subtitles' to 'From the first subtitle'.

The popup menu of the translation edit box was the wrong one. Corrected.

Removed the side effect (unwanted selection of line after left of the text clicking) due to the "Removed the flicker" solution in v6.2.0. See https://sourceforge.net/p/subtitle-workshop-classic/discussion/general/thread/dfe8fe9538/#acbb

Added also the choice between Word and Hunspell check to the spellcheck toolbutton.

The part of the video seek bar left of the current video position looks now the same as the right hand part (not inverted any more, better to interpret).

Another drawing method is used now for the the seekbars and the video buttons to prevent black buttons in some cases.
