I've tried _OCR via Image Compare_ and now I'm sticking with the recommended _OCR via Binary Image Compare_, but it's tedious. I've been writing for 2 hours and it was merely half-way done.\r\n\r\nTesseract sounds promising, I hope it can offset my workload to convert .sub to .srt much more efficiently. Unfortunately, I've no idea how to use it. If I just select the OCR like any other OCRs selection, it doesn't seem to function properly. (never seen it function properly)\r\n\r\nhttp://somup.com/cbQIiaVoGR\r\n\r\nMaybe I missed out something? I need to take additional steps to install Tesseract myself before I can use it?\r\n\r\nThis is what I have done:\r\n\r\n- [x] read all guides of **Subtitle Editor 3.5.3** with regards to OCR\r\n- [x] downloaded dictionaries\r\n- [x] installed **Tesseract** [with a Windows installer](https://github.com/UB-Mannheim/tesseract/wiki) and opted for _**all** dictionaries_\r\n- [x] restarted Subtitle Editor 3.5.3\r\n- [x] uninstalled both **Subtitle Editor 3.5.3** and **Tesseract** (I didn't managed to delete Tesseract _environment variable_ because there wasn't any)\r\n- [x] reinstalled both **Subtitle Editor 3.5.3** and **Tesseract**\r\n- [x] Tried running **Subtitle Editor 3.5.3** as Administrator\r\n\r\nand yet it doesn't help. :(\r\n\r\nI don't know how to use it.
