User reviews
Нашёл баг с тем, что если, к примеру, я смотрел видео с английскими субтитрами и скачал это расширение то почему то вторые субтитры не выводятся, даже если закрыть и открыть браузер. Решение: выключить расширение и изменить субтиры на русские, включить расширение и обратно переключить на английский. Расширение топ, кроме той проблемы, что я упомянул ни с чем не столкнулся.
