This Friday we were planning to have a Spanish Language Movie Friday. so Post your favorite publicly posted or pirately hosted movie for Cytube Fridays, some restrictions will be that the movie you nominate must be made in Latam

this Friday its going to be a double Feature so that mean that the 1st and 2nd most voted movies will be the ones we watch

Movies usually play 08:00am & 8:00pm Central Time Cytube is a finicky beast and usually accepts Youtube, Vimeo, Daily Motion, GoogleDrive(requires plug-ins, ez pz)and occasionally others if it feels charitable that day. Here’s the manual

This Special Movie friday is from an Idea we had where the first Friday of each month will be a comm specific movie friday, this month being c/latam.

and The 2 winners are:

  • Motorcycle diaries: "The Motorcycle Diaries" is based on the journals of Che Guevara, leader of the Cuban Revolution. In his memoirs, Guevara recounts adventures he, and best friend Alberto Granado, had while crossing South America by motorcycle in the early 1950s. :che-poggers:

  • Machuca: Two 12-year-old Chilean children from different social classes become friends in 1973. They both discover each other's world as political tensions in their country increase. :allende-rhetoric:

Looks like we are gonna have some Southern Cone dominace in this Latam movie friday

    I've got both movies re-encoding with the subtitles baked in, but it looks like cytu.be provides a way to link to subtitle tracks using JSON as well.

    I'm going to experiment with this. If I get it working, I can provide links to the hosted files.

    Edit:

    I figured the JSON shit out. Got non-baked subtitle tracks working in Spanish and English working in Cytu.be.
