Description
Sheng captions, instant dictionary lookup, and one-key card capture for web video. Sheng is a language-learning companion for the Sheng desktop app on macOS. It needs the desktop app to be running. While you watch a video in Chrome, the extension: - Finds the page's own captions (YouTube tracks, subtitle files, HTML5 tracks, or captions drawn by common players) and sends them, exactly timed, to Sheng's subtitle window. Nothing is drawn over the video. - Gives Sheng a clean frame of the video when you save a card there. - Optionally transcribes speech live with Chrome's built-in speech recognition when Sheng uses Chrome Web Speech. This works for a video in Chrome, or for sound Sheng captures from other apps on your Mac. The microphone is never used. The extension talks only to the Sheng app on your computer (ws://127.0.0.1:17357). It has no account, no analytics, and no servers of its own.
