#README

Pyrrot is a multiplatform client for SubDB written in Python. It can run on Windows, Linux and MacOS.

##REQUIREMENTS

  • Python 2.6.5 for all systems.
  • Mark Hammond's Win32all if you want to run Pyrrot as a service on Windows.

##INSTALLING

You need to copy Pyrrot2.py and urllib2_file.py to a folder of your preference. Then, after you've done with the configurations (see below), all you need to do is:

python Pyrrot2.py or c:\Python2.6.5\python.exe c:\path\to\Pyrrot2.py (if you're using windows)

You can also run Pyrrot using cron, or install Pyrrot as a Windows service. To do this:

Cron (Linux): */30 * * * * python /path/to/Pyrrot2.py

Service (Windows): c:\Python2.6.5\python.exe c:\path\to\Pyrrot2Service.py --startup auto install

As you may have noticed, you need to copy Pyrrot2Service.py too.

##CONFIGURATION

You need to edit the following lines on Pyrrot2.py before use it:

PYRROT_DIR = "/path/to/pyrrot" #The path to where Pyrrot is. Can be empty if you're not running Pyrrot as a Windows Service.

DIRECTORIES = ["/path/to/your/video/files", "/path/to/your/video/files2"] #Configure here the directories where your video files are.

LANGUAGES = ["pt", "en"] #The languages to download subtitles, in order of preference.

MOVIE_EXTS = ['.avi', '.mkv', '.mp4', '.mov', '.mpg', '.wmv'] #The video file extensions that you want Pyrrot to looking for.

SUBS_EXTS = ['.srt', '.sub'] #The subtitle extensions that you want Pyrrot to looking for.

If you are on Windows, the paths will be like:

PYRROT_DIR = "c:\\path\\to\\pyrrot"
