The Burekas repository contains improved Hebrew subtitles add-ons. Those add-ons solve many annoying problems in the existing Hebrew subtitles add-ons. The recommended add-on from the repository is All Subs Plus, which integrates all the sources of Hebrew subtitles and has many cool features like loading the best subtitle automatically. With those add-ons, every Israeli or Hebrew speaker can now watch movies or TV shows on Kodi with the best subtitles in the easiest way possible.
Here are the instructions on how to install Hebrew subtitles:
- Launch Kodi
- Click the settings icon
- Click System
- Hover over Add-ons
- Click Unknown source to enable it (if you haven’t done it already)
- Go back to the settings menu
- Click File manager
- Click Add source
- Click <None>
- Type the URL: https://burekaskodi.github.io/repository.burekasKodi and click OK
- Type burekas as the source name (so you will be able to identify it later) and click OK
- Go back to the Kodi home page
- Click Add-ons
- Click the add-on browser icon
- Click Install from zip file
- Click burekas (which is the name you gave to the source)
- Click repository.burekaskodi-x.x.x.zip
- Click Install from repository
- Click Burekas Repo
- Click Services for All Subs Plus, Subtitles for Ktuvit Plus, Wizdom Plus, OpenSubtitles Plus and Menu Context for Subtitles Dialog – Contextmenu
- Click on the add-on you want to install
- Click Install
- Wait till you see an add-on installed message
Improvements over the original add-ons:
- Automatic loading of the best subtitle
- Manual search for specific subtitle
- The search for a subtitle can be done whether a video is played or not
- The result of the search is more accurate
- If you have only an English subtitle file, transition to Hebrew can be done with Google Translate (works only for All Subs Plus, and you will need to activate it in the configuration of the add-on)
- Many bug fixes

- In the bottom right corner of the screen, click the Subtitles icon

<Movie Name> <Year>
For example, titanic 1997
- For TV shows, enter the search string in the following format:
<TV show name> S<Season number>E<Episode number>
If the season number or episode number has only one digit, add a leading zero.
