[mythtv-users] User Job to rip subtitles from each program

[David Crawford]

This is the script im trying right now and it just hangs, Trying it with
python /home/dave/uksub2srt/renamesrt.py %CHANID% %STARTTIME%

#!/usr/bin/env python

import sys
if len(sys.argv) != 3:
    chanid, starttime = sys.argv[1:3
import os
from MythTV import MythBE, findfile
be = MythBE()
prog = be.getRecording(<chanid>, <starttime>)
oldbase = prog.basename.rsplit('.',1)[0]
newbase = prog.formatPath('%m-%d_%H-%i-%s_%cN_%T').rsplit('.',1)[0]
sg = findfile(prog.basename, prog.storagegroup)
if sg is None:
    raise Exception('file not found')
from MythTV import System
ccextractor = System(path="/home/dave/uksub2srt/uksub2srt.py")
ccextractor('-i', os.path.join(sg.dirname, prog.basename),
            '-o', '/home/subtitles/{0}.srt'.format(newbase))

can anyone tell me what im doing wrong?

many thanks,
dave
