Use this extension to add subtitles available to user to any YouTube video SubtitlesForYoutube

This extension lets you add subtitles to any video you are watching on YouTube. Just drag and drop .SRT file or zipped .SRT file for your movie on to the upload-box and the subtitles will start showing up.

The extension also supports searching and using subtitles directly from OpenSubtitles.org and Amara.org right from the YouTube video page. Now you can search in ALL LANGUAGES. Note there are only 5-10% videos on YouTube which have corresponding subtitle in OpenSubtitles.org and Amara.org so you might not be able to search and find subtitles for all videos.

One example of video with searchable subs - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qF_qbaWt3Q [Music video - Waiting For The End (Official Video) - Linkin Park]

Note: If you already had opened a YouTube page before installing the extension you will not see extension load on that page. Just refresh the page once after installation is complete.

After trying disabling all extension i can't get this extension to work. Clicking on subtitle icon nearby share button does'nt open search and upload dialog box. It might because youtube updated their youtube interface on browser, like android app.

Can't search for subtitle Hi, thanks for the incredibly useful extension, it's nice! recently I found I can't search for the subtitle I upload to Amara.com (it worked three or four month ago) if can be fixed would help a lot, thank you! the video https://amara.org/videos/2olYIYlTiHwl/info/rp-asmr-pov-i-finally-got-some-cuffs-on-younijisanji-en-vox-akuma/

Does exactly what the description says, apparently many of the reviewers here just didn't read it. It's not providing the subs itself but rather a way to add them from external sites. No clue why that seems so hard to understand for some people... A lot of old tv shows are only to be found on youtube without subs (or not in the language I need) even though there are some available on external sites. With this extension I can finally use those. Always wondered why youtube wasn't giving the ability to use own subs so I'm glad to have found this addon.
