The link never completed for me, so unless popdrome can share it again, we have probably little chance. And we need the yle version too
I do not have popdrome's file, but the title indicates it is the English dub version. There are other English dubbed files at ulozto, and some of them also have English subtitles. There is also an external English subtitle file at opensubtitles.org.
As I have said before, I love movies with cute furry pets. I watched the English dub version some time ago so that is why I am particularly interested in the Finnish-language original.
I made minor changes to spelling and timing errors in the English dubtitle*, which is the only external subtitle I found online. The arenan.yle site has optional Swedish subtitles with their video, but after at least 3 hours playing with Developer Tools and various downloaders I was unable to extract that subtitle.
[*Dubtitle: A subtitle that matches the text of a dubbed version, rather than being a straight translation. Dubbings as standard practice alter the wording as necessary to approximate mouth movements.]
"Supermarsu" means "Super guinea pig", but "Super Furball" is admittedly a better English title and more easily rolls off the tongue. Where "furball" was used in the subitle I left it in, even though I could hear them saying "marsu" ("guinea pig"). Other than that, I do not know how closely the English dubtitle matches the original Finnish dialog, but it was easy enough to resync to the spoken Finnish in this video. There are a few spots where English dialog was inserted in the English dub and I did not hear any Finnish in the original, but I did not delete them from the subtitle.
Finland must be an environmental paradise if a butter factory is the biggest polluter there.
Even though I had concerns about computer resource exploitation, the Urban-VPN Chrome extension was so useful that I will continue to reinstall and use it as needed. It has servers for some countries that my main VPN does not have. I will not reinstall the desktop version, however. I did not even have to use it!
Here is the file downloaded from arenan.yle with unaltered video and audio. The faint "yle" watermark in the upper left corner is intact. The ONLY change I made was identifying the audio track as "Finnish": https://ulozto.net/file/VY9MGg0cRBJC/su ... ygAwEuBN==
English subtitles synced to the Finnish language video:

My version of the video (pictured in the screenshots) leaves the Finnish audio the same but crops the "yle" watermark from the black border for a same-size, same-quality file. None of the movie image was lost.
