Thanks for fast fix. Wil try for some days before reporting.

P.S: I suggest you to add text removal before ":" also for mixed case option, such as "BiLBO:" and so on.

Hi.

Got a question about the spell checking.

After OCR I often end up with a lot of lines with "I" (capital I) actually being a l (low capital l) or L (capital L).

Words like

l'm should be I'm
L'm should be I'm
ls should be Is
lt's should be It's

When running a spell check, it happilly accepts all those Words, eventhough none of them I think is even valid English Words.

Also "Bob." became "Bob-ll

Which might be valid, but should still be pointed out by the spell checker?

I am not even sure if spell checking is an internal part of Subtitle Edit. If not I guess there is nothing to do about it.

I just think that the spell checker accepts a lot of Words, that are not even valid English words.

Maybe it is me not using it correctly. If so please let me know how to make it catch all these words.

If not, can something maybe be changed to make it catch all these words?

Thanks in advance.

@rco133: SE uses Hunspell... I would prefer not to add extra code with special OCR related hardcoded rules in the spell check.


ATM you can either:

1) Use Tools -> Fix common errors - Fix common OCR errors

or

2) Make your own rules via Edit -> Multiple replace

Probably half of this thread is concerned with partial solutions to a problem that should never existed in the first place.

Why do these spelling errors arrive and wherefrom? Can't the user correctly write in his own language?

Of course I know the answer. The errors comes from OCR. Geez, we do not have enough problems, we are bored, let's convert from the original subtitles to another one, to save only a couple of kB, to occupy our minds then with issues like code page (for anyone not English), L or I, # or ♫, colours, timings, positions and of course the compatibility of the result with the existing players. Players that otherwise will play the original file just perfect, and 83-years-old-age compliant.

Some people want the dash before the first line of dialogue, others request its deletion. Go figure.

Issues and problems that concern a secondary if not even non-related task of the software, a bonus functionality if you like.

Meanwhile issues that are part of the core, like loosing the position on-screen of the original subtitles (these are centered after processing) do not have time to get solved, because someone has a spelling issue with tembo-tembe subdialect and semicolons .

Good morning.
I have a problem with DirectShow (W10 @ 64bit) since a few days has stopped working and in the warning of Subtitle Edit I get a black screen but the audio is present.
I am forced to set up VLC as a video player in the Options> Preferences.
I can not understand what happened, can someone give me some advice?

Thank you

@DMD: It's probably because you're missing a decoder for the video - LAV filters contains decoders for the most common used formats - get it here: https://github.com/Nevcairiel/LAVFilters/releases (use the installer)
(if you're sync'ing or creating subtitles I recommend mpv as VLC does not have precise seeking)

Thank you for your help.
I installed LAV filter 0.72, but I still have the same problem.

What version of LAV filters did you install? SE probably runs as a 64-bit program on your computer, so it's important you did not install only the 32-bit version. (I think the installer installs both versions per default).
MediaInfo can tell you what video codec you're having trouble with.

Perhaps someone else has some good ideas?

No good ideas, but I actually have the same problem since a while back.. Haven't gotten around troubleshooting yet though.

FINALLY I RESOLVED !!
After endless tests, I discovered that the problem was due to the latest nVidia driver release and not a codec problem.
The latest drivers are version 398.82 for the GeForce GTX 960 video card, I tried to install version 390.65, with this version I solved all the problems.

Thank you all for the availability

Not the drivers fault, somethings wrong with your setup.
Works great for me with 398.82.
BTW, latest drivers are 399.07.

Update:
Works perfectly with 399.07.

Regards

I created the current image of the pc through Acronis, I have formatted and reinstalled only the 399.07 Driver the video with directShow turns black.
With the regressive driver test, I checked the regular operation with version 391.35.
I think the problem could be the GTX960 video card that has problems with newer drivers.

Regards

It never happened to me before, i've until now always used the portable version, but with this last version, i can't start OCR, i have popup and error message telling me that tesseract can't be started, to check everything is properly installed.
Everything is properly installed (redistribuable 2017, Framework .NET 4.7.1). Under Windows 7 x86.
Rolled back to 3.5.6, everything worked fine again.

Edit :
Could this be related ?

Top Issues Fixed in 15.8.3

These are the customer-reported issues addressed in 15.8.3:

Visual Studio 2017 version 15.8.2 contained a pre-release build of .NET Core SDK 2.1.401 that is incompatible with Visual Studio. We have corrected this issue with Visual Studio 2017 version 15.8.3.

sluggish performance

Many thanks for the new release! SubTitle Edit is one-of-a-kind!

Installed 3.5.7 and kept old settings.
Started a new project today and noticed some new stuff in GUI.
Didn't change anything.
Ran the new project and there was a noticeable sluggish performance.
Usually it just flows through but now it stumbled and almost froze for a second before moving on.
Tested with old projects and the sluggish behavior is there.

So I rolled back to 3.5.6 and all is good, both the new project and old ones and the sluggish behavior is gone.
I have no clue on what this is about or what I can do.

Best regards

@jpsdr: The Tesseract version used by SE is now "Tesseract 4.0 beta 3" which might need a newer "Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio" - could you try to install this: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/down....aspx?id=48145
Does that help?
The reason for upgrading from Tesseract 3.02 to 4 is mainly due to support for more languages... Tesseract 4 is a lot slower and it's also the reason for the SE increase size (4 extra mb)!

@varekai:The sluggish behavior is when doing what exactly? Did you change video player?

Sorry for bad explanation...
I have first window open (List view) and then File --> Import/OCR Blu-ray (.sup) subtitle file...
No video player active in this scenario, when I use video I have mpv selected.
Havn't tried that yet in new version but it worked perfect in 3.5.6 last time I used it.

Euh... Your link is for a VS2015 redistribuable. You can't install redistribuable 2015 when you've installed the redistribuable 2017. I have installed the 14.15.26706 version of 2017 redistribuable, i have Framework.NET 4.7.2, tesseract still don't want to start.
Not a big deal, for now, i'll stay with 3.5.6.

More information : I have a big popup with a lot of informations, but the first line, translated said : This is not a valid application for this operating system.
As i've notify in post #716, i am under Windows 7 x86.
Meaning your tesseract version either is not compatible Windows 7, or is not for x86 OS. Have you tested either under Windows 7 and/or under 32 bits OS ?
After, if for now versions are not Windows 7 compatible or are not 32 bits possible anymore, Ok, but at least tell it.
