Hi I have a sattellite dish, and receive channels with arabic subtitles. some of the movies are in english so i can understand, but some are in other languages (e.g. indian) so i cant. as not all people here speak fluent english or read arabic, I want to add a hebrew subtitles.
The idea is to sample the movie around every second, use an arabic ocr, and babelfish or google translate, to translate to hebrew i know the translation is not always very good, but i though i give it a try so i need: 1. An OCR software for arabic (for linux of course) prefferebly which can handle a picture in the background 2. a translation software between arabic and hebrew. or at least api to access google translate or babelfish 3. a way to display the subtitles. this is easy, just create a simple X app and raise it above the movie player btw, as mythtv can record to disk, it will also be ok to work offline (but i prefer to translate in real time). Thanks erez.
