Open any video page of the supported websites, eg: this video on YouTube, click the extension icon on the browser toolbar, and the extension subtitle menus will pop up.
Dualsub has two working modes:
Working Mode | Rendering Method | Avaiable Websites | Depends Dualsub Server |
---|---|---|---|
Standard Mode | General rendering method | All websites | Yes, has paid features |
Simple Mode | Native rendering method | Only YouTube | No, no paid features |
Two working modes can be used at the same time, which is convenient for you to compare the subtitle processing and displaying.
Each row of menus controls a subtitle language, each row has 3 menus, and their functions are as follows:
The simplest usage is select the subtitle languages in the "Subtitle Language" menus, and the other menus keep in "Close", then you can see the two subtitle languages are displayed.
Simple mode is only available on YouTube, which is convenient for users who "too lazy to do any settings, just simply display one more subtitle language".
Standard mode provides better machine translation result, especially for "auto-generated" subtitles, see Improve YouTube Translation for details.
The following operations are based on the default settings.
Use different font sizes
Select "First Subtitle" and "Second Subtitle" in the "Theme Style" menus respectively.
Add pinyin for Chinese
Add furigana for Japanese
By default, only add hiragana for kanji, and the underline indicates the segmentation of statement.
