As far as I understand they are shutting down open subtitles.org API, but the jellyfin plugin uses the .com version. The free account there is limited to 20 downloads per day via API

People are getting the their pitchforks out but I think they are misunderstanding. Opensubtitles.ORG is being replaced by opensubtitles.COM. They just are stopping access to the ORG website. I have already migrated to the COM website for a while. And a 20 downloads/a day limit for free users is very reasonable.

I guess this would also affect stremio's opensubtitles addons

oh fuck no, this kills qnapi and vlsub, doesn't it?

I'm afraid yes. I use their API to automatically download subs in jellyfin and I guess I'm gonna lose that too :(

And Plex's on-demand subtitle download.

But they offer a new API. Any disadvantages with the new one?

I didn't see anything about it being free. I also didn't pick up on whether or not it was moving behind a paywall, just that you could buy a vip subscription for 20% off

Wait so….. Access is now closed for kodi access on non paying members?

Unless they use the website and manually download them?
