doesn't work
by Damien Gagniere, 2024-10-29

Yeah sadly doesn’t work for me either. I’m French, IP located in France, Youtube set in French. I want to watch videos with their original soundtrack, no matter wich language it is. But Youtube forces the additionnal French soundtrack when there is one… I’m so frustrated by that… So this addon seems like the dream to me ! But it didn’t make a difference. I don’t rate it too low though, I wish for it to work !

Didn't work. I am on a Windows 11 computer using Google Chrome x64 version 127.0.6533.73. Everything in this machine was updated yesterday. Such a shame because the idea behind this extension would make it so great. I hope to come back here, find out the issues have been ironed out and be able to write a new and glowing review.
