Please add, in 5.0.0 BETA and newer:
1- The option to import plugins
2- More UI languages, like Dutch.

[niksedk]

The languages needs to be made by a native speaker... you can probably take the English file and ask an AI to translate to Dutch: https://github.com/SubtitleEdit/subtitleedit/blob/main/src/UI/Assets/Languages/English.json
But... some review/test would be required

What plugin do you miss?

Hi Nikolaj, AI is our answer. See atached file. One foodnote: moving the json file to the Languages folder of SE 5.0.0 BETA13 results in a crash when i run SE 5.0.0B13 (Linux64 Tarball version) and select Dutch as the UI language. The flatpak does not pickup the json-file at all. Regarding plugins... I just need the option to import plugins like i did on SE 4.08 for example. Regards, Evert I am using SE 5.0.0 BETA13, and i miss basicly the option to import Nikolaj Olsson schreef op ma 06-04-2026 om 05:13 [-0700]:

You need to attach the file directly on Github (mail attachments are nut supported)

Regarding plugins... I just need the option to import plugins like i
did on SE 4.08 for example.

SE 4.x plugins will not work... what do you need exactly?

[MintKing12]

spell check from Microsoft Word, AmericanToBritish, and others... but for me "WordSpellCheck" it is essential.

[niksedk]

@moob158 Can you test if you can switch spell check to MS word in Options - Settings - Tools ?
Beta 14: https://github.com/SubtitleEdit/subtitleedit/releases

[moob158]

@niksedk It doesn't detect any spelling errors, apart from a few that I deliberately made to test it.

Not work for now in Beta 14 ;)

[niksedk]

Thx for testing :)

Next beta will be another try at this (I cannot test this as I do not have MS Word)

[niksedk]

Is beta 15 any better?

[moob158]

@niksedk Just need detect the language of the subtitles to start in the corresponding dictionary language.

[niksedk]

What does European languages look like?
English, Danish, etc?

[moob158]

Yes, I am using European Portuguese, "Português (Portugal)".

[galdorf]

I think there should be an easier way to make English forced subtitles using whisper look for non-English parts and convert them to English and place just the translated words in the subtitle edit, so far it is a very long process of convert whole movie using speech to text with the convert to English checked off then going in and deleting the English parts from the movie. or is there a way to do this don't see one though.
