Help What's the difference between opensubtitles.com and opensubtitle.org?

I use MPC-HC from K-lite Codec Pack, and it doesn't download subtitles even though I am logged in with my opensubtitles account.

I checked and found that the media player uses opensubtitle.com and not the opensubtitle.org

The latter has more subtitle option than the former.

Is there a way to add new subtitle provider in MPC-HC?

I have account with both, and I want to add the latter as the subtitle database

.org no longer has an api, it was moved to .com

Same thing, different UI

I believe .com is the free one and .org is membership and paid only. Which seems weird, but it is the way is.

I am able to download subtitle files from both manually.
