To get the version of CCExtractor, you can use --version.

CCExtractor version: CCExtractor 0.94, Carlos Fernandez Sanz, Volker Quetschke.

In raising this issue, I confirm the following:

[ x] I have read and understood the contributors guide.
[x ] I have checked that the bug-fix I am reporting can be replicated, or that the feature I am suggesting isn't already present.
[x ] I have checked that the issue I'm posting isn't already reported.
[ x] I have checked that the issue I'm porting isn't already solved and no duplicates exist in closed issues and in opened issues
[x ] I have checked the pull requests tab for existing solutions/implementations to my issue/suggestion.
[x ] I have used the latest available version of CCExtractor to verify this issue exists.
[x ] I have ticked all the boxes in this section and to prove it I'm deleting the section completely to remove boilerplate text.

Necessary information

Is this a regression (i.e. did it work before)? I don't know
What platform did you use? linux
What were the used arguments? ccextractor -hardsubx VIDEOPATH

Video links

anything really

Additional information

what ever I set as TESSDATA_PREFIX ccextract still says the same error with the same path,
setting TESSDATA_PREFIX affects tesseract so I know it is not that.
but CCExtractor seems to look at a hardocded path.
