Capture subtitles on any site

Use Universal capture on course platforms, news sites and video hosts.

Steps

  1. Open the page with the video and click the SubtitleDown icon.
  2. Switch on “Capture subtitles on this site” and allow access when Chrome asks.
  3. Reload the page, start the video and turn its subtitles on.
  4. The captured tracks appear in the popup. Download them or open them in the editor.

Tips

  • Use “Scan player tracks” to read captions straight from the HTML5 player.
  • If the video is embedded from another domain, add that domain in Settings → Universal capture sites.
  • Encrypted (DRM) streams and subtitles inside video segments can’t be captured.
