YuzuLingo vs VidSubX (voun7)
YuzuLingo covers burned-in subtitles on the video you are already watching, including YouTube, Bilibili, and other web players. You do not download the video. Turn on Interact to read the burned-in line on your device, with furigana or pinyin when the language has them, and a transcript of the lines in that session. Show that text always, on hover, or while you hold a hotkey.
VidSubX is voun7’s program on GitHub for Windows and Linux. You point it at a local video and it writes an external subtitle file from the burned-in text. It can find the subtitle area, run a batch, and hide the rest of the frame so you only see that area. An Nvidia GPU can speed the extraction. The subtitle file can be translated afterward with a script or SubtitleEdit.
