Many srt files into usf-8 srt files

[fits79]

Is there a program that we can add it a folder and convert all .srt files exist at this folder to utf-8 srt files?


I want to can convert any language like Greek.


Don't need to do it 1 by 1 file.


Edit: I believe i find from my older topic.
The program "Subtitle edit" i believe it do the work fine.

If you are a Linux user i have a script to convert srt to utf8

#!/bin/sh
ls *.srt | while read file ; do
charset=`file -bi $file | sed 's/.*charset=//'`
echo '###' $file $charset
case "$charset" in
us-ascii) charset="";; # no conversion needed
utf-8) charset="";; # no conversion needed
binary) charset="";; # no charset detected
*) ;;
esac
if [ "$charset" != "" ] ; then
iconv -f "$charset" -t UTF-8 -o "$file".utf "$file" && mv "$file".utf "$file"
fi
done

Save this into the directory where your files are as srt2utf8.sh and give it execute rights. Execute this on terminal in that directory like this: ./srt2utf8.sh

If you are a Windows users you have to convert this script to Windows batch style, i can't help you with that.
