Youtube legacy extension not showing subtitle browser or parsing
The legacy extension isn't parsing subtitles or showing anything in the browser. Downloading the subs and uploading a custom .srt doesn't work either...

Migaku Player still works fine though, I can parse on there perfectly fine
Hmm, looks like migaku can't even download the subs into srt files, each time I try to download its 0B
Is this on brave I assume? I wonder if the extension is finally breaking down 😔

Nope its chrome, I downloaded the youtube vids I was interested in and played them fine in the migaku player
Tried it again today and its still not working, may have to switch to the more recent extension...

@Portal2Mtr can you see if brave works for you out of curiosity?
Legacy unlikely to receive patches going forward
Chrome technically doesn’t support legacy anymore so chrome itself may be stopping it from working, like hulk said try brave since that’s what everyone uses for it as it still works for now, but if it does properly break it’s not supported anymore so I doubt they’d fix it if it did

Thanks all, switching to brave seems to work fine for now on youtube, sucks that basic chrome is breaking.
Spoke too soon, it worked fine for the first video I tried, but then I switched to another one and came back and now its broken again. I'll just have to use the player workaround for now.
You can thank chrome killing manifest v2 off 🫠
