"description": "A powerful video player that lets you open and play an entire folder of local video files directly in your browser.\n\nFeatures:\n- Playlist navigation\n- Automatic subtitle detection (.srt & .vtt)\n- Customizable caption sizes\n\nTo use subtitles: Place the subtitle file in the same folder as the video. The subtitle's filename must start with the video's filename (e.g., 'MyVideo_en.srt' will be matched with 'MyVideo.mp4'). This works for common patterns like 'VideoName_en.srt' or 'VideoName (English).vtt'.\n\nAll processing is done locally for privacy and security.",
