Extension summary

Tiny extension that removes forced closed captions from Netflix's Subtitles.

Removes Closed Captions, Hearing Impaired (HI) Subtitles, such as: [MUSIC PLAYING], (ENGINE REVVING), ♪ I'm singing in the rain ♪.

Comes with button to show closed captions, it appears at the rightmost corner of the omni-box, clicking it toggles CC On/Off.

-----------CHANGELOG--------------- + Now works with multiple CC lines + Options + Also blocks Music Parts ( off by default) + Persistent options across devices

I can't provide you with a screenshot of this working as the image would be copyrighted, as would the subtitle itself I'd imagine.

For now this extension seems to disable some essential top row UI elements like "Movies" , "Series" etc.

Worked great for quite a while, suddenly stopped working recently for some reason.

Alright, so here's the deal. It was all good at the start, but now? Not so much. These updates are like waiting for paint to dry, seriously. So, I've gotta knock my rating down to 2 stars. I'm giving it that extra star because, hey, it did work at one point. But I'm shaving off three for these snail-paced updates. If things don't pick up soon, I might have to drop it to a single star. But if they get their act together and it starts working again, I could see myself bumping it back up to 4. Just saying. Update: Okay, so here's the update on the situation. We're now two months down the line and, honestly, things haven't gotten any better. Those updates? Still slower than a turtle in peanut butter. So, I'm officially going all in and dropping my rating to one star. I mean, I gave it a fair shot, right? I've been patient, but patience has limits, my friends. If they turn things around and it starts working like it used to, I'd consider bumping it back up. But for now, it's a solid one-star from me. Disappointing, really.
