Chrome extension · Netflix and YouTube

Your first dual subtitle is a few clicks away.

Install Dubstack, choose the language you are learning and a translation, then open a captioned video.

Free to install. No account required for the core features.

Two-minute setup

Install once, then use the player normally.

Add the Chrome extension

Use the store page above and approve access to Netflix, YouTube, and Netflix subtitle files.

Open Dubstack from the toolbar

Pin it if you like, then choose your learning and translation languages.

Play a captioned video

Netflix needs the subtitle tracks you choose. YouTube needs at least one caption track.

Turn on the in-player pill

Auto mode usually handles this. The pill lets you override Dubstack for one video without changing every tab.

What Chrome asks for

Access is limited to the places Dubstack works.

The extension does not request access to every website.

Netflix

Reads available subtitle tracks and timed-text cues, then places the selected two lines over the player.

YouTube

Reads caption tracks and the current video state so source and translation stay together during playback.

Chrome storage

Keeps language choices, display preferences, saved lines, and activation state in the browser.

See the full plain-language breakdown on the security page and the exact disclosures in the privacy policy.

If nothing appears

Check the captions before the extension.

Make sure the video has captions and that your chosen language exists. On YouTube, videos with no caption track cannot be translated by Dubstack.

Open Dubstack and check the status line. If one track is missing, choose another available track. The player's normal captions should remain visible while Dubstack waits.

Still stuck? Visit Support and include the site, video language, and what the popup status says.
