Notes

Note: create directories if it don't exist! & Restart the VLC!
Run: Open VLC-->View--> مترجم زیرنویس فارسی and select it.-->Enable extension to translate current english subtitle.
Note: subtitle file name should be the same as movie name.srt.
Note: to avoid any crashing, run extension & close the vlc; the background vlc will translate the subtitle and
the *-fa.srt will get larger in size; after a while the translation is done and the file size won't change anymore;
there run the vlc and watch the movie with the translated subtitle in the same folder!

Language supports

Change the TARGET_LANG = "fa" as you desire to get translation. e.g.:

1. TARGET_LANG = "iw" for Hebrew
2. TARGET_LANG = "ru" for Russian
3. TARGET_LANG = "zh-CN" for Chinese (Simplified)
4. TARGET_LANG = "de" for German (deutsch)
