EasySubtitles

Even if the movie you’re watching is in a language you understand, chances are volume of sound effects can interfere with voice comprehension. In this regard, specialized applications like EasySubtitles want to help you find subtitles for shows and movies over the web in the blink of an eye.

Can be used on the go

The application doesn’t even need to be installed in order to function, giving you the possibility to use it on other PCs, directly from a thumb drive. Portability, in this case also means that the computer you use it on remains stable, mostly because registry items are not modified in the process. However, .NET Framework needs to be part of the target PC.
Subtitle search is based on a file from your computer, which you need to load for the process to be successful. Either through drag and drop, or using the browse dialog, file support allows you to work with movies under formats like AVI, DIVX, FLV, M4V, MKV, MOV, MP4, MPEG, MPG, VOB, WMV, X264, and XVID.

Quick return of results

Search is conducted on a specialized website, so Internet needs to be active. However, results are returned in the blink of an eye, with all detected entries showing up in a list with related info like name, format, size, and movie time in minutes. All it takes to download it is a double-click, and the file is automatically saved in the movie source location.
Unfortunately, language support leaves more to be desired, with only a few items you can choose from. On the other hand, you can initiate a manual subtitle search, either by file name, or writing it down, but this doesn’t solve the language issue.

In conclusion

Taking everything into consideration, we can say there’s a high chance to find the right subtitle for your movie with EasySubtitles. The file selection process takes only a little while, with results returned almost instantly. Manual search cuts the file dependency, but we’re waiting to see better language support in any possible future version.
