I really like Language Reactor’s built in embedded YouTube video player - which allows a more robust UI layout over watching natively on YouTube’s website.
It seems it only works with predefined videos/channels, but since LR is only pulling in the video and seemingly embedding it - then parsing its subtitles. Why is it not available for any video?
The link that LR uses to embed is, www.languagereactor.com/c/ja/yt/t_yt_all_ja/yt_
, where a YouTube video’s identifier tag is used to point it to whatever video.
For example, one of my favorite channels is Japanese Super Immersion, for one of their videos, www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jyDO_6_lgQ
, the unique identifier would be after the v=
, so in this case 8jyDO_6_lgQ
is the identifier and if combined with LR’s link it would be www.languagereactor.com/c/ja/yt/t_yt_all_ja/yt_8jyDO_6_lgQ
Which unfortunately does not work. Could we have some changes to this feature to allow any YouTube video to be embedded and used on LR’s YouTube Catalog? I’m not seeing any major reason this does’t work besides some kind of whitelist and design choice.
Also, there isn’t any way to search for a video/channel on the Catalog page, except by endlessly scrolling and trying to find something that way.
Also, saving words to learn from YouTube videos does not seem to capture the original audio or a screenshot like it does from Netflix.
Thank you for any consideration to my request
