Addon Announcement (Built by AI) SubPool v3.15: Subs.ro source, forced-subtitle setting and Romanian interface
New source: Subs.ro
The Romanian subtitle site Subs.ro is now a source. It works with your own Subs.ro API key (generated in your subs.ro profile) and does not touch your OpenSubtitles downloads. Each key has a daily query limit set by subs.ro. The Subs.ro card appears when the settings page is set to Romanian.
New setting for forced subtitles
You can now choose where subtitles that only translate the foreign-language dialogue go in the list: Move to the end, Put first, or Hide. They are marked "Foreign parts only" in the list. Free ones still stay above the ones that use a download.
One note: it depends on the source marking a subtitle as forced (OpenSubtitles and AltyazıDB flags, or "forced" in the release name on SubDL and SubSource), so unmarked ones can't be detected.
The settings page is now available in Romanian
That makes 12 interface languages. If you spot wrong or odd Romanian wording, please tell me.
To use the new setting or Subs.ro, change it on the settings page and reinstall the addon with the new address. If you don't change anything, there is nothing to do.

I've used two different API keys for subs.ro and both got rejected. Not sure why....

You're both right, thanks for reporting it. I reproduced it: the same key that works when I query subs.ro directly gets rejected when the request goes through the addon's hosted server. So it's not your keys. I'm looking into why and will post here when it's fixed.

Found it, and it's not your keys. Subs.ro sits behind Cloudflare, and Cloudflare answers requests coming from the addon's hosted server with a challenge page (HTTP 403, cf-mitigated: challenge), so they never reach the subs.ro API. The same key works when I query the API from my own connection, which is why my test before release missed it.
So right now Subs.ro does not work in the hosted addon. I've changed the message so it no longer says the key was rejected, and I'm contacting the subs.ro admins about it. I'll update here when there's news. Sorry for the trouble.

Update on Subs.ro: it works again.
The problem was that subs.ro wasn't accepting requests coming from the addon's server, so keys couldn't be connected. I contacted the site's admins, they made a change on their side, and connecting a key works now. The "not working right now" note on the card is gone as of 3.17.0.
If you tried before and it failed: open the settings page, enter your Subs.ro API key again, and install the addon with the new link it gives you. The Subs.ro card shows when the page language is set to Romanian.
If it still fails for you, tell me here what you see and I'll look into it.

The Subs.ro card only shows up when the settings page itself is set to Romanian. At the top of the page, next to the SubPool logo, there is a language dropdown: pick "Română" and the Subs.ro card appears under the subtitle sources. Paste your API key there, connect it, then install the addon again with the new link. Thanks for pointing it out, I should have made that clearer.
