FlixTools is the official subtitle downloader for OpenSubtitles.org, one of the most popular subtitle sources.
The app works in a very simple manner. To start a search, you only need to load video files to the app window. Since FlixTools is capable of processing videos in batches, you can add as many movies and episodes as you need to find subtitles for. The app will immediately process them, providing info about each item, like the episode/movie title, duration, plot, release date, actors, among other details. After a quick analysis, the application will quickly retrieve the results.
In the list of subtitles found, FlixTools will help you choose the most suitable SRT files for your video. It will indicate the best matches, the subtitles language, and also when a subtitle is suitable for the hearing impaired (CC). You can also have a quick look at any subtitle file to check if it corresponds to your video before downloading it. If it’s necessary, you can open a selected SRT file with the Synchronize Subtitles tool that is built-in with the app, and adjust timings or change the subtitles speed.
Among the most interesting options of the free version is the Watch Folders feature. By enabling it, you can set the app to monitor a selected folder and every time a new video is added, it will automatically download a matching subtitle file. This feature works great and during my test it provided accurate results based on the file name. With the free version, you can also upload your own subtitle files to OpenSubtitles.org, as long as you are a registered user.
