Turn on YouTube CC, click extension to launch an independent desktop caption window. Lock 'Always on Top' over apps. Enhance your video multitasking workflow with YT Clean Desktop Caption HUD. This highly optimized extension decouples closed captions directly from the YouTube video framework and streams them live into a completely standalone, borderless desktop window panel. Move it, size it, or snap it anywhere on your desktop layout—perfect for overlaying subtitles on top of full-screen games, background apps, or floating Picture-in-Picture (PiP) videos. Designed from the ground up for elite performance and strict digital accessibility standards, this HUD layout provides a distraction-free environment that keeps your workspace neat while ensuring text never escapes your field of view. 🌟 CORE PRODUCTION FEATURES: • True Desktop Freedom: Breaks captions completely free from the browser window box. Put it on a secondary monitor, taskbar layer, or right over your PiP window. • Zero Window-Casing Clutter: Completely hides browser tabs, gray address URLs, navigation buttons, and bookmarks. • Shorthand Accessibility Controls: Change Text Sizes (Sz), Text Colors (Txt), Typographic Styles (Font), and Background Box Colors (Bg) instantly on an adaptive single-row dashboard toolbar. • Dynamic Fluid Layout: Automatically scales font sizing parameters step-by-step to perfectly fill the horizontal and vertical margins of the HUD panel as you drag and resize the window frame dynamically. • Intelligent Silence-Hold Hysteresis: Anchors spoken lines comfortably for 1.5 seconds during small conversational pauses instead of blinking off instantly, turning completely and cleanly blank during extended musical interludes or scene lulls. • Self-Healing Multi-Tab Sync: Switch tabs or play different videos seamlessly. The overlay automatically tracks, hooks, and updates header titles without throwing memory errors or crashing background pipelines. 📖 HOW TO USE IN 3 SIMPLE STEPS: 1. Open any video on YouTube.com and click the native player's closed caption "CC" button so it lights up. 2. Click the extension toolbar icon in your browser to deploy your detached HUD frame widget anywhere on your desktop. 3. [Optional PC Pinning Pro-Tip]: Download Microsoft PowerToys, highlight your new caption HUD window, and tap "Windows Key + Ctrl + T". This aggressively forces the overlay box to lock permanently "Always on Top" of full-screen games and secondary production windows! Privacy Architecture Notice: This extension operates 100% locally on your computer device. It contains zero background trackers, analytical scripts, ad cookies, or remote server data data mining relays. Clean, lightweight, safe code.
