YuzuLingo vs mpv-subtitleminer (friedrich-de)
YuzuLingo stays in the browser. You cover burned-in subtitles on the video you are already watching, including YouTube, Bilibili, and other web players. There is no media player to set up and no video file to download. Turn on Interact to read the burned-in line on your device, with furigana or pinyin when the language has them. Show that text always, on hover, or while you hold a hotkey.
mpv-subtitleminer is friedrich-deās toolkit in the repo mpv-subtitleminer. You install mpv, drop the release into mpvās config, and open a video that already has a subtitle file. A local Rust server sends those lines to a page in your browser, where you look words up with Yomitan and send a sentence, a screenshot, and audio to Anki. It can show a second subtitle track, replay a sentence, clean the text with a regex, and hide lines by ASS style or name. Version 0.1.9. The README says this is an early release. It does not cover words burned into the picture.
