Nice work Eric, thanks very much for sharing that.
One thought is that Universal Subtitles could return data as JSONP or enable CORS on their servers so that we could avoid same domain origin policy restrictions and do it all client-side! I posted this on the Universal Subtitles group here :
https://groups.google.com/d/topic/universal-subtitles-development/EWTrhMV8s34/discussionIn the meantime I'm thinking of creating a CORS enabled proxy on our own
jplayer.org servers.
Why client-side? 1. Portablity of code - easy for people to get up and running, everything is in one place. 2. Scalability, processing is distributed amongst the cleints, less for the server to do.
Looks like they are going to expose the users list of subtitles which is cool. In general the Universal Subtitles project is very very cool, folk that haven't tried it yet should definitely give it a whirl - it's a lot of fun!
Please keep any developments coming. Great to see!
Cheers
Mark
