Thanks for sharing. It looks very cool. May I ask which Trancy tools are you using and how is it going?

I just gave it a quick try and wasn't impressed by the current state of things.

1a. The Language Reactor-style plugin. On YouTube, it seems to require that I disable AdBlock on the channels I want to watch. Why is that even a requirement?! I didn't like the idea and gave up.

1b. On Netflix, the first film I tried (Weißbier im Blut) failed with "no machine subtitles" or something to that effect. The show does have subtitles, and LR works, so I am not sure what the problem is.

2. I asked it to proofread a paragraph from "Die Schatzinsel". What I got back was a mix of German, English and gibberish (truncated for brevity):
