Substation Alpha support now added, there will likely be some tweaking needed in the future but it works quite well at present. Multiple file support now added, process files in bulk. Other tweaks.

Wow!! Thank You!! |
SubStation was something I wanted to do really early on but back when I first made this my Python skills were very basic. Let me know if anything weird pops up when you test it. 🙂 |

Closes #3
SubStation Alpha
.ssa/.asssupportWorks well with a selection of files in differing languages and format versions, there will likely be some tweaking needed in the future for fringe cases and 'labelling'. This was quite an easy format in some respects and a pain in others. There are four versions, each with changes that were not so important and one that was very important when it came to the dialogue lines.
There are some new options specifically for this format,
nonameandnosort, details are in the readme.md and the repo front page.SubStation Alpha subs are quite different beasts to regular
.srtor.vttones. While.vttsupports some similar features they are almost never used. SSA's can have styling, fonts, colours and one of the key things, positioning. Fans of Anime will be familiar with this, not only can you understand the plot, but using position a subtitle creator can add labels to objects in the scene, for example; labelling a carton or drink, or translating the title of a document or sign. Removing these could be done by looking for the{\pos}tag, however, a really good subtitler may use this to allow for a conversation between characters to have their subs hovering near them, if you remove all{\pos}tags, you would possibly remove important dialogue.Multiple file support
Want to process multiple files? Now we can simply use the new
--dir/-doption and give it the name of your folder that contains the subtitles. It will process every file it understands.Other tweaks
