I've used https://github.com/kaegi/alass and sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It's not an easy problem to address automatically... Video players wouldn't want that in thei…

I've made my own mpv extension for Japanese subtitle analysis too. It can also create Anki cards automatically (with screenshot and audio). Having a scriptable media player is real…

Indeed, you get high quality in context cards, something that is still missing from most Anki decks. The code is here https://github.com/pigoz/mpv-nihongo , keep in mind that a lot…

I did something similar for myself using mpv's scripting interface (for Japanese immersion). I can press a button and have the current subtitle analyzed for words with mecab, or pr…
