Language Selection

Choose your preferred transcript language for YouTube videos:

  1. In the modal: When you enter a YouTube URL, the plugin automatically fetches available transcript languages
  2. Select your preferred language from the dropdown (or choose "Auto" to use your preferred language setting)
  3. The plugin will try to use your selected language, falling back to English or the first available language if your preference isn't available
  4. In settings: Set a default preferred language (or comma-separated list like "en,es,fr") that will be used automatically
  5. The modal selection overrides your settings preference, allowing per-video language selection
