The quest to perfect and naturalize YouTube Subtitles has been quite challenging and taken several iterations over the last few months.
While edge cases likely remain the quality appears far superior than standard YouTube subtitles.
Enjoy these enhancements as LingQ/LanguageMaster imports through the Playlist Importers / Rooster Video Tools.
