I have no idea how to convert .png to srt and there is no play time either :S so I'm not sure if it will work :S

Thank you!

I admit, I never found those PNG that you say :/ Makes me an example, please? I am curious

My english is not very good anyway, there is a reason why i said to use Chrome and not other browsers. There, i know for sure that it will work using HTML5 which is the way to make appear the subtitles as i explained above. Other systems rely not on HTML5, and you can not extract the subs.
Operation is EASY. Just try again with Chrome and his developer tools and look ALL the packets. You will see a lot of packets which are encrypted (they are the segmented videos) but if you look fine you will see also the subs.

Easy, no?
Then you must to save the page, and you must to import it in the tool "Subtile Edit". That's all!
Let me know...

nice writeup. easy to figure out. Now we just need a python script to do all the work for us lol

You can also download the subtitles in .dfxp format by using Bluestacks with the Netflix Android App and sniff the traffic with e.g. URL Snooper 2.

I have followed the procedure explained by Denn1s and it works. Unfortunately, I also need the timecodes. How can I keep this info in the xml file?

Import the file you downloaded to Subtitle Edit and you will be able to save it to .srt, which is the most popular subtitle format. All timecodes should be preserved. As a matter of fact, the file you've downloaded in the first place already has all its timecodes in it but the format it came in isn't friendly to most subtitle readers available out there - that's why you'd want to convert it to another format such as .srt.

Thanks a lot. I have tried to open it with Subtitle Workshop and I couldn't see them and then with Notepad ++ and there they were. I'll try with that one and will let you know.

your way is working fine but only work for me with English subtitle other language not working its not showing any xml subtitle only for english =(

Before all, as usual sorry for my bad english.

Blue dragon, obviously before you must to select the language subtitle that you want... anyway probably there is a faster way to get the subs... now i use Firefox and Adblockplus. Try this... Start the movie with your wanted subtitle then click the adblock plus firefox addon as in the image



then write in the search box /? as in the image (this is the italian version, but you should see something similar)



It should appear the link of the subtitle that you are looking for. Now you can save it and you can import it in Subtitle Edit as i explained in the other post. Let me know if it works
