Even turning them off on youtube still allows them to be on Watch2Gether. My friend and I have been left unable to watch videos together because of how annoying the subtitles are. How can we fix this??
Hi and thanks for reporting this. I have applied a fix. When you move your mouse over the video, you will now see controls to disable the subtitles. Hope that helps…
Doesn’t work with me ! I dont have any options to turn them off…
You are watching videos from Youtube on Watch2Gether?
This is a video from Vidme, right?
No it is from YouTube, when I mouse over the video it shows nothing so I double right clicked it and clicked ‘Show controls’ which made a bar show up like in the image. If that is not what you mean by the controls to disable then please tell me how I can turn off subtitles. Thanks
Ok, thanks for clarification. The info i posted earlier about Youtube subtitles is indeed not correct anymore. Currently its not possible to control the subtitles through the Watch2Gether player. Im working on a solution for this.
UPDATE: Since today there is full support for Youtube subtitles on Watch2Gether. Enjoy
Hi, sorry to up this post, but I search to activate subtitles but I don’t see this button. It’s no longer avalaible or it’s a bug?
Hey… the button is only available when there are subtitles on the video. You can try it with this one:
oh ok, my bad. This work fine with this video, thank!
So we can’t have the youtube Auto-Generated subtitles?
That’s a good question. I’ll have a look into the YouTube Player documentation and check if there is a way the enable those subtitles as well.
Hey Florian @user_95f53b7185f71fb,
any updates on that? What are the technical difficulties?
It’s a bit annoying to have to watch yt videos through the sync option and the embedded links.
Thank you.
Best regards,
love
