René's URL Explorer Experiment

{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"DiscussionForumPosting","headline":"Using translate_document with SRT format leads to Internal Server Error or broken HTML","articleBody":"When I send SRT document for translation with `translate_document` method and I have encountered two problems:\n\n1) If SRT is missing a paired html tag, for example `\u003ci\u003e`, then **Internal server error** is returned. ** I would expect a more understandable error message.** It takes a long time to figure out what the error is. Example:\n```\n504\n10:19:30,427 --\u003e 10:19:33,028\nIt's a work in progress,\nbut here it goes.\u003c/i\u003e\n```\n\n2) If I send this title for translation:\n```\n504\n10:19:30,427 --\u003e 10:19:33,028\n\u003ci\u003eIt's a work in progress,\nbut here it goes.\u003c/i\u003e\n```\nthen DeepL will add additional tags to the end and beginning of the lines. That would be fine, but unfortunately **it will also remove important line breaks and merge two sentences into one!**  Example:\n\n```\n504\n10:19:30,427 --\u003e 10:19:33,028\n\u003ci\u003eIt's a work in progress,\u003c/i\u003e\u003ci\u003ebut here it goes.\u003c/i\u003e\n```\nWe do not want automatic HTML correction. Not under these circumstances!\n\n3) SRT is not usable for documents. I am currently solving this by using the `TXT format ` for SRT (sad).","author":{"url":"https://github.com/Tomac1","@type":"Person","name":"Tomac1"},"datePublished":"2025-09-04T15:02:16.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":0},"url":"https://github.com/146/deepl-python/issues/146"}
