What is Caption?
Caption takes the effort out of finding and setting up the right subtitles. A simple design, drag & drop search, and automatic downloading & renaming let you just start watching. Caption is multi-platform, open-source, and built entirely on web technology.
Caption currently uses 2 sources to gather subtitles (OpenSubtitles and Addic7ed). We're continuously adding sources, but the app's open-source nature also allows you to add your own when desired. This can be done in Caption Core.
Comments and Reviews
Its not good for anything on Mac at least. It just keeps loading and nothing happens. The app cant find anything. I love the idea, but it just doesnt work.
It works but only for TV Shows, though. So I am voting as a not a good alternative because Sublight could find anything.
