How it works

When the addon is [abbr title="You can enable by clicking on its icon situated on the right bottom corner"]enabled[/abbr], it will look for videos on the pages you browse. If it found out any matching video on the page it will grab it and open from Video Sub Player. You can then specify the subtitles you want to play the video with. Currently you need to manually specify the subtitlesCheck Limitations section.

Video Sub player is a player I developed and can be found at http://videosubplayer.ideawide.com/

 

Limitations/Future updates

Current version is not capable of finding subtitles for a given video, but we are working on to provide that service as well. We  had some issues with some video providers due to cross domain policy and now it is completely solved(Add-on needs to be installed to play any videos due to cross domain policy restriction).

Change log is found here.
