I have used Amara for a long time and everything has worked perfect. But yesterday I got a problem while I was downloading a subtitle I had made. When I clicked on download and chosed srt file, I got the message I have take a screenshot of. I tried again today, and got the same message. I therefore tried to download fromanother video I translated yesterday, and that one went okay. So either I have mad a mistake with this one, or there is a general system failure with subs made after a certain time yesterday. The video I have problems with is this one :
There is currently a problem with downloading subtitles when there is a question mark in the video's title, because the question mark gets added to the name of the download file, and then the download doesn't work and instead produces the message you saw and took the screenshot of: see bendk's comment in the Amara Github ticket entitled "errors opening some video lang pages related to download".
Fortunately, there is a work around: removing the question mark in the URL of the download file.
Same for the downloads in other formats. To get the URL of another format, right-click on it in the download drop list, then choose "copy URL" from the contextual menu that appears. Then paste it somewhere, remove the question mark derived from the title of the video, and the new URL will work.
