Subtitle to text

[extremetonic]

Hi. I want to make text file from subtitle file (.srt) with macro. For example;

1
00:00:06,612 --> 00:00:12,619
An estimated 20 million cases of blindness
worldwide are caused by cataracts,

2
00:00:12,619 --> 00:00:19,215
a curable condition affecting the lens
that focuses images onto the eye's retina.

3
00:00:19,215 --> 00:00:23,678
A cataract occurs when proteins
in the lens lose their normal arrangement,

It should be;

An estimated 20 million cases of blindness worldwide are caused by cataracts, a curable condition affecting the lens that focuses images onto the eye's retina. A cataract occurs when proteins in the lens lose their normal arrangement,

I want to read as script. I use this macro for it, but I have a problem now. I can't convert other languages excluded English. For example; German, Turkish etc. because this languages has special words. Can you fix the code for me pls?

May be the problem is not beacuse of "special words" but because of code page used while saving srt files? Turkish are probably coded with CP 857 or may be 1254 or may be Unicode ???.
Sample input/expected output related to your problem would help us to properly help you (you gave just English example, while as you wrote - code works fine with English).
to attach such file, you may for instance zip (compress) it - forum accepts .zip attachments, while .srt is not allowed.
