Subtitles are essential when you want to watch a movie that has been released in a language that you do not speak well / at all. They are also great if you want to learn a language because you get to hear the original voices of the actors and can still glimpse at the translation whenever something is said that you did not understand. Subtitles are either a common appearance in your country or frowned upon. Most movies in Denmark for instance are subtitled whereas all movies that come into German cinemas are completely spoken in German.
The major disadvantage of subtitles so far has been accessibility in my opinion, at least when you take a look at watching movies on your computer. You have to know the websites and forums that provide users with subtitles and it's more of a burden than fun to do that.
Sub Downloader [via Genbeta] could change that. This software scans various subtitle databases returning a list of subtitles for the selected movies. By default subtitles in all languages are returned which can be changed in the program's options. If you only wanted to find and download English and French subtitles you could edit the settings accordingly.
The subtitles are automatically downloaded into the right directory. What I really like is the fact that you can dump the contents of a folder into Sub Downloader to search for subtitles for all videos at once. The tool can add two options to the right-click menu that search for subtitles when you click on that option. Again both single videos and complete folders can be submitted.
Sub Downloader is available for Windows, Linux and Mac OS.
