macSubtitleOCR-gui 0.1.0 — initial public release

A SwiftUI front-end for macSubtitleOCR. Drop a .mkv, .sup, .sub, or .idx file, pick one or more PGS / VobSub tracks, and get clean .srt files next to your source.

Install

Download macSubtitleOCR-gui.dmg below, mount, drag to /Applications. The build is signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple — no Gatekeeper warning, no right-click-Open dance.

You'll also need MKVToolNix at runtime: brew install mkvtoolnix. The app shows a one-tap install card if it's missing.

What's in this release

  • Drag-and-drop input for .mkv, .mks, .sup, .sub, .idx
  • Multi-track selection with checkboxes — pick one or many tracks per run
  • Auto-tick of every track whose language matches your preference (e.g. en,jpn ticks all English and Japanese PGS tracks)
  • Track filter / search field for big files (47-track UHD remuxes welcome)
  • Locale-aware track display: eng renders as English, with Default / Forced / SDH badges
  • Persistent OCR options (language, invert, custom-words) across sessions
  • Live progress UI per stage (extract → OCR → finalize), real cancel button
  • Filename rule that distinguishes SDH from regular: Movie.eng.english-sdh.srt, Movie.jpn.japanese-commentary.srt
  • SRT preview cards on the Done screen — first 3 cues of each output before you mux

Requirements

  • macOS 14 (Sonoma) or newer
  • Apple Silicon (Intel can build from source)
  • MKVToolNixbrew install mkvtoolnix
