What we need

First ( and most important ), people that LOVE TV shows or movies.
The subtitle team should be made of:


* Synchronizer ( adjusts times )
* Correctors ( checks if the subtitle is complete, spell checks texts )
* Translators ( when possible, to translate the subtitle to other languages )
* Supervisor ( the final check of the file. Checks if the subtitle is according to The Code )
* Uploader ( Uploads the file to the websites that joined The Team )



If you don't know anything about doing any of these things, we`ll help you.
If you want to join, leave a message.
If you want to live chat about this, come on IRC, channel #addic7ed on EFNet ( irc.efnet.net )

hello

[chiphu]

Count me in, alex28. I can do well four of the five tasks you listed above, except for the supervisor. Specifically, translating into Vietnamese is my top priority, followed by the correction with timing, line adjusting, spelling...

[honeybunny]

The sync is what we need help with and there still are some shows without correctors. For the sync part contact me, for the correction details, contact chamallow.

Let's see.

Chamallow was the Mother of all correctors , that means you don't have any reason to PM her.

I assume you want to translate from English to Slovakian, right?
In that case, you have two options: first, start using translate feature from addic7ed.com page, for any show you want to translate.

Or, you can download a subtitle of some desired show, and using Subtitle Workshop or Subtitle Editor or any other subtitle editor software, then start translating from the comfort of your home .
You can also "search" for some fellows (some people from your country) and start to make a translating team that will work as an addic7ed.com translating team (hmmm, stupid sentence, isn't so? )

Anyway, any option you will choose, will be very appreciated.

Hi there!
I would love to participate on the translation of Once Upon a Time into French. You are always the first one to give french subtitles of this show, but unfortunately, the translations are quite often very bad :s I don't need the subtitles personnaly to watch the show, but I am watching it with some friends who need it. And almost one in every 3 sentences, I have to tell them "Ok, the subtitles is completely wrong, what he/she just said was XXXX..." It looks like everything was translated from google translate or something like that which works for some sentences, but can't be used for an entire episode obviously. For instance, they often say "That's right" as in "that's true" but everytime the word "right" is translated in french, instead of heaving it translated to "c'est exact" or something like that (which really means "that's right" in french) they translate it into "c'est à droite" which means "it's on the right" (the direction). And a lot of other stuff are like that. If there was no sound on the video and I just had to understand the story by reading the subtitles, man the story wouldn't have any sense lol
The sync is always quite perfect, nothing really to change there (except if you want something 100% accurate but hey, as long as it works ok, it is fine right? )
Anyway, I would love to participate and help whoever works on this show, and I am also available for other shows like Desperate Housewives, Raising Hope, Modern Family etc.
It's been a while since i've translated a subtitle file, so maybe I will need a little hand on which program to use etc but it should come back fast

By the way, I'm not critisizing whoever translate that show, I'm sure it's a lot of work! Just saying that he/she needs a little help, and I'm there ^^
