Download subtitles from TED talks for offline viewing

Question

I'm wondering if it's possible to download subtitles for the TED talks for offline viewing.

Parsing and Converting TED Talks JSON Subtitles.

Think you need to check with TED for that. The talks are available in many languages, but that's as part of the flash experience, so I can't see how to extract the subtitles. Nice idea though.

This is not an answer just a hint . I have found the URL which loads the related file like this , and its in JSON format.

	It's `http://www.ted.com/talks/subtitles/id/451/lang/hin` but thanks very much for the tip! I'm going to see how I can convert those to a compatible format now. – Alix Axel Dec 23 '09 at 18:28
