Hello author, could you please add a mode where the video is on the far left, the text is in the middle, and the glossary is on the right?

I’ll add the mode in the next update.

v13.0.0

  • Develop the “Local Video” layout.
    You can use LingQ with your video (not only a YouTube-uploaded video)
    The video is not uploaded anywhere. That’s played in your browser locally, so there’s no copyright issue.

This feature is what I have wanted to implement from long before but didn’t find a way to develop. But a few days ago I came up with a way to do it in a simple but efficient way!

How to use it

  1. Prepare a lesson with the audio and subtitle of the video. Basically, it is an audio lesson.


2. Select the “Local Video” layout in the setting.


3. Select the corresponding video and subtitle (optional) file for the lesson.
4. Click the “Start Player” button and play the lesson audio with the space bar.


5. The video is synced to the audio and subtitle automatically.

With this feature, you can watch a movie/anime or whatever you want inLingQ.

This is the very thing i suggested that lingq do so im very happy to see this! Great job! I just wished that the local video counted as listening time but still very cool to see

I think it is counted as the listening time since it utilizes LingQ’s audio player!

EDIT so i just realized that you have to click play from the lingq player or else it will not sync up. I was playing from the video player and it does not sync up together when you do that. This is really cool.

v13.1.1 Implement a “use lesson subtitle” option.

If you choose a video only, the default (lesson’s) subtitle is utilized.
You can still choose a video together with another subtitle!

Hey there i updated the script to the latest version on firefox and i noticed i cant import a video anymore. I chose the local video layout and couldn’t get it to show. I also tried deleting and reinstalling the extension a couple of times

Is it possible to add focus tracking when jumping to the highlighted yellow words? Currently, if a yellow word is located off-screen, I have to manually drag the scrollbar to the corresponding page to see it.

You are saying the ← , → , or ‘b’ keyboard action, right?
I didn’t know about that issue since I only use mouse to select a word.

I already implemented the playing-sentence focusing feature for video/audio lessons, so that might be helpful.

Yes, I use the left and right arrow keys to navigate between words; if a word falls outside the visible area, I have to drag the scrollbar to its location to see it.
