- Rated 3 out of 5by Illiou, 7 years agoThis add-on seems to be a really good effort. Unfortunately there are a few issues:
1. Most importantly, every time you pause or jump to a different timestamp it takes 5-10 seconds until it displays subtitles again, which is quite a dealbreaker for me.
2. The options menu doesn't stay visible (using Amazon Prime), even with the mouse cursor hovering over it. And somewhat funnily it will only show up again if the cursor leaves it.
3. A significant amount of time when looking for subtitles with the built-in search it will just show an error after loading for a while. I realize that this is possibly due to the external provider, but even then the error handling is suboptimal, since it throws you back to the main menu afterwards, meaning the whole process of searching and choosing a subtitle has to be done over and over again until it works.
Additionally, as I just noticed the timing seems to be off from the file. In my example the first line in the srt file starts at 00:00:19 seconds but after loading it into the add-on it shows the first line at about 00:00:09. Synchronization option is set to 0.
Also, having the option to add outlines and/or shadows to the subtitle display would be beneficial for visibility. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13748257, 7 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by vivu68, 7 years agoIt is true it runs on any video on the web. It is easy to use and has all the features it promises.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13555334, 7 years agoFantastic, one-of-a-kind extension! I looked for a subtitle player and this add-on was the most flexible one. I mostly use it as a layer and this is a feature other addons are lacking. Full screen by definition brings the video to the foreground, so no subtitles on top, there is no workaround yet within FF (still I can press F11 and zoom the page in to make video almost fullscreen).
I wish I could try new v2, but I press the button and the popup menu is blank. Maybe it's my old browser, FF 47.0.2, I think it's not any other extension. Anyway, I give the dev 5 stars because it's awesome! Thanks!
