BASE64 decode and ungzip data in PHP

I am working with OpenSubtitles API and need to BASE64 decode and ungzip API response ('$data' parameter) in PHP.

Full '$data' parameter you can find here: https://jsfiddle.net/noxjmz40/

I can easily BASE64 decode this parameter with base64_decode($data) but I am not sure how to ungzip and get a normal result.

Please, advice me how to solve this task in a short and efficient way. Thanks!

Found an easy solution after some seconds of searching. The solution is gzdecode().

$data = ... ; // Your string
$decoded = base64_decode($data);
$plain_string = gzdecode($decoded);

This way you can get your output

$output = gzdecode(base64_decode($data));
