[Feature] Save default caption settings / Language rulesets

Open Net005 opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently the caption settings are reset after each playback. Subtitle is not automatically enabled based on video language.

Describe the solution you'd like

  • Add ability to change default settings like color and transparency.
  • Perhaps a new setting to allow for default caption language or more advanced rulesets

Describe alternatives you've considered None

Additional context

Few solutions that come to mind:

  • A set as default caption settings button in the video playback window area or new settings area
  • Caption / languages language rulesets like LAV filters has currently:

The default caption is currently set based on the default language set by your browser. An option to override that behavior makes sense.

Regarding the caption styles, you should already be able to modify them via CSS. I even think the caption menu has an option to allow you to modify it directly in the player. I don't have access to my server currently to verify this though.

I’m not sure what the significance of the ruleset suggestion though. A simple setting to allow users to select a default caption seems like enough.

Haven't found a clean way of doing this is both CSS and JS besides hacking some GM script together. Currently it doesn't save caption settings when reloading or switching scenes at least so any default preset for this would be much appreciated :)
