It would be more useful if one could directly paste links to videos online as well. But yeah, in general this is extremely useful. I'm looking forward to video site integration. Would be great if youtube could finally retire their horrible auto caption function for something that actually works. Being able to easily watch media in different languages from around the world will be an absolute game changer.

I also plan to support automatic language translation I have that working locally already actually, and I work for one of the big alt-video platforms and rumour has it that I will be shipping this feature for them soon (auto transcription with auto translated subtitles)

Really cool, that would be a killer feature. Definitely post here when this gets released!

Yeah it's all ready to go using LibreTranslate, they have about 25 languages, maybe I'll finish that this weekend and put it up, it's really inexpensive to make the translations compared to making the original transcription so may as well. Coming soon!

Also, I have that tested (auto download) with YouTube-Dl, it works fine but haven't put it into the frontend, but may as well, it helps a lot on your own instance so you don't have to download it first and then upload it
