horusporus<p>Also the Malay subtitles were INCREDIBLE. it just sucks that we still don't really preserve them in any home releases (I believe Netflix/otherwise Malay translations are handled by their own contracts. I'd check with this one down the line if not for the fact I'd have to pay for d+). The 80s/90s era of horrible subs because the contracts used to come out of Hong Kong is definitively over.</p><br><br>RE: <a href="https://app.wafrn.net/fediverse/post/2ae6445e-9436-4e83-ba07-58886020f286" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://app.wafrn.net/fediverse/post/2ae6445e-9436-4e83-ba07-58886020f286</a><br> <a class="hashtag" href="https://app.wafrn.net/dashboard/search/lalok%20lolllllllll" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#lalok-lolllllllll</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://app.wafrn.net/dashboard/search/thunderbolts" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#thunderbolts</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://app.wafrn.net/dashboard/search/subtitling" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#subtitling</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://app.wafrn.net/dashboard/search/Malaysia" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Malaysia</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://app.wafrn.net/dashboard/search/linguistics" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#linguistics</a>

mona, the unofficial spokesperson for nirvana the band<p>I've looked into alternative ways to sub youtube videos, and NekoCap seems to be the best one so far.</p><p>It's open source, no AI stuff or paywalls, supports a bunch of other video sites, and it supports complex subs so you can use different fonts, do text placement, all that cool stuff. They have their own subs editor, but I have never used it, just make my subs on AegisSub and upload them there.</p><p>You do need to have a google account to upload subs there, which is eh, but you get your own little page with all the videos you subbed and you can put a donation link there which is nice.</p><p>It links to the original youtube videos, so you can share them from the NekoCap website or just use their web extension to watch straight from YouTube, no account needed.</p><p>Anyway, I think it's neat, been using it a decent amount, I like it. <br>Here's a link to it: <a href="https://nekocap.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">nekocap.com/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://toot.garden/tags/NekoCap" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NekoCap</span></a> <a href="https://toot.garden/tags/YouTube" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>YouTube</span></a> <a href="https://toot.garden/tags/Subtitling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Subtitling</span></a> <a href="https://toot.garden/tags/ClosedCaptions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ClosedCaptions</span></a></p>

Peter Christensen<p>Oh, Dexter subtitler, you disappoint me so. If it had been a pop song, you would have noted the name of the song and the artist, But Miles Davis’s “So What”— one of the most important songs in all of jazz? One of the great opening tunes on any record, period? It is reduced to “Light jazz music playing.” *sigh*</p><p>I get that not everyone's musical backgrounds are as wide my own, but jeez, have a little curiosity...
