As I am becoming better with a language, importing and then watching native content from YouTube. I wish to focus more on the video without looking at the words so my listening comprehension becomes better rather than reading, but I find the sentence view rather annoying because I cannot look up unknown words.
Is it possible, to make the YouTube player adjustable, I know you can move it around, but to make it bigger would be a great help. Also, moving the text off to the side to fit the player.
Something along those lines would be a great improvement.
Many thanks team :).
Perhaps I am stating the obvious, but there are many ways to switch to a text view e.g. press down on the word of interest.
I do wish you could stop the video, and then just click on a word to see the definition, it would be so much more user friendly. And it would help if the current line was in the middle of the screen as per YouTube, as it often scrolls up and off the screen, rendering the product useless. Then there are the countless bugs where it restarts the video from the beginning …
I would certainly add my vote to making the Youtube overaly bigger or resizable. Most people at home have big screens, there is definitely space to increase the overlay size
It is crazy to me that the player is both so tiny and cannot be resized.
It’s a floating player. Why in the world is it a fixed size?
LingQ is all about comprehensible input, and the thing that makes many videos comprehensible is the video. Yet, it is too small to see, even on a large screen!
There is also lingQ on the web side, which uses sentence mode to play youtube, and reloads the video for each sentence, making learning very fluid. But there is no such problem on mobile phones.
