The add-on modifies the YouTube live-chat for both live-streams and replay, allowing to either highlight, show as subtitles, or delete chat-messages matching a set of preset and customizable filter rules. This is useful e.g. for showing Hololive live-chat translator messages as subtitles, highlighting English comments, or deleting annoying messages and emoji.

Main features of the add-on:

  • Highlighting of YouTube live-chat messages via a separated chat-box
  • View live-chat messages as subtitles for YouTube player
  • Delete YouTube live-chat messages
  • Customizable filter rules, allowing to either enter simple search-texts, or to use more complex options (e.g. Regular Expressions)
  • Customizable subtitles style
  • Settings are applied to all open YouTube pages and live-chats immediatly
  • Light- and Dark-theme support
  • Visual design close to YouTube's live-chat and video player design, aiming to not change the look of the YouTube website

Experimental:

  • Filter messages regarding characters of languages. E.g. show only YouTube Live-chat messages written with Latin (English) characters.
