Captions support on youtube mobile apps? #80

Open mrkrabs206 opened 2 months ago

mrkrabs206 commented 2 months ago

As of now, only the web version of YT2009 allows captions on most videos with captions.

But, there is only one that captions weren't implemented on YT2009, and that's the mobile apps. Like, why this isn't supported yet on these (1.x-4.x)?

I found them in the files and I want to show you some of these.

1.x:

ic_menu_captions Captions button btn_cc_off Captions off btn_cc_on Captions on

2.x: btn_cc_off Captions off btn_cc_off_focus Captions off (pressed) btn_cc_on Captions on btn_cc_on_focus Captions on (pressed)

3.x: ic_vidcontrol_cc_off Captions off ic_vidcontrol_cc_on Captions on

4.x: ic_vidcontrol_cc_off Captions off ic_vidcontrol_cc_on Captions on

It could be great to add this feature to mobile apps to understand the video for deaf people and the people who speak in another language (French, Spanish etc).

This is my last idea to be shared.

Hopefully this will be done.

It needs a comparison of the two so it not let me

yeah, that's how pull requests work, you compare the upstream code to your code that has the mobile captions implementation
