Pyzub: Manipulate subtitles

Pyzub is a small package and CLI for manipulating subtitles

Suported Formats:

• SubRip [.srt].

Plans to Support:

• SubStation Alpha [.ssa]
• SubViewer [.sub]
• Universal Subtitle Format [.usf]

Installation:

Run pip install pyzub

Command Line Interface:

At the moment only the slide command is available (arguably the most important feature). The slide command of pyzub lets you move your subtitles so you can synchronize them manually.

$ pyzub slide -h
Usage: pyzub slide [OPTIONS] FILEPATH

Options:
  --hours FLOAT
  --minutes FLOAT
  --seconds FLOAT
  --milliseconds FLOAT
  --microseconds FLOAT
  --overwrite           Modifies the subtitle file in place.
  --verbose             Displays a progress bar and a message when finished.
  --help, -h            Show this message and exit.

Example:

This will move your subtitles by 2.5 seconds (you can also give negative values):

$ pyzub slide Game_of_Thrones_s03ep09.srt --seconds 2 --milliseconds 500

By default pyzub will generate an output file named Game_of_Thrones_s03ep09_MODIFIED.srt, unless --overwrite is used. The output file will always be in utf-8 encoding and use your system new line character.

This is OK too:

$ pyzub slide Game_of_Thrones_s03ep09.srt --seconds -70.5 --milliseconds 5000

This would move your subtitles 65.5 seconds back in time.

Package:

You can read a subtitle file:

from pyzub.subfiles import SRTFile

filepath = '/home/user/mysubtitle.srt'
subfile = SRTFile(filepath)

Iterate over the file:

for subtitle in subfile:
	print(subtitle)

Print a SRTFile:

print(subfile)

Relative Path: /home/user/mysubtitle.srt
Codec: ISO-8859-1
No. of Subtitles: 451

Get a subtitle:

# idx could be a number from 1 to 451 in this case
subtitle = subfile.get_subtitle(idx)

Print the subtitle:

print(subtitle)

Index: 1
Start Time: 00:00:04,605
End Time: 00:00:06,105
Text: En un día cualquiera,

An of course modify anything you want directly:

# modify the text
subtile.text = 'modified subtitle'

# times use timedelta from the datetime package
subtitle.start_time = timedelta(minutes=10)
# also, you can assign directly a string
subtitle.end_time = '01:25:59,650'

# write the changes to disk
subfile.dump('/home/user/mysubtitle_modified.srt')

And finally:

print(len(subfile))
# output: 451 (i.e, the number of subtitles in the file)

print(len(subtitle))
# output: 21 (i.e, the number of chars in the subtitle's text attribute)

Planned features:

• Insert, delete subtitles, etc.
• Automatic grammar and syntax correction
