Live-Subtitle

ANDROID APP that can RECOGNIZE VLC LIVE AUDIO/VIDEO STREAMING (using free Android Developers Speech Recognition API) then TRANSLATE (using MLKIT TRANSLATE API) and display them as LIVE CAPTIONS / LIVE SUBTITLES.

This app has PROS & CONS compared to other Speech Recognition APIs like VOSK, IBM WATSON, and PREMIUM GOOGPLE SPEECH API

PROS: It's FREE and supports all languages supported by Google with very good accuracy

CONS: It currently can only listen if you PLAY YOUTUBE STREAM (NOT ALL STREAMS!) via ANDROID VLC PLAYER

And also please note that when you select a VOICE LANGUAGE or TRANSLATION LANGUAGE this app needs to DOWNLOAD MLKIT DICTIONARY first before it can show the translation

VLC UPDATE NOTES : IF YOUR VLC CANNOT PLAY DIRECT YOUTUBE LINK URL ANYMORE, YOU NEED TO UPDATE youtube.lua SCRIPT INSIDE VLC

There are 2 ways to update youtube.lua script :

  1. FOR ROOTED ANDROID DEVICE :

Replace youtube.lua in android storage with ES FILE MANAGER or FX FILE MANAGER :

/data/data/org.videolan.vlc/app_vlc/.share/lua/playlist/youtube.lua
  1. FOR NON ROOTED ANDROID DEVICE :

Use APKTOOL https://ibotpeaches.github.io/Apktool/install/ to modify VLC.APK and APK EDITOR STUDIO https://qwertycube.com/apk-editor-studio/download/ to sign it

  • download apktool.jar and place it into a folder that has been already added to system environment path (e.g. in C:\Windows\system32)

  • create apktool.bat (or executable script if you're linux user) just like described in https://ibotpeaches.github.io/Apktool/install/ and place it in same folder as apktool.jar

  • create a working folder in your drive to store apk file and its decompressed contents e.g. in C:\APK

  • place vlc.apk into C:\APK (PLEASE USE OLD VERSION OF VLC, DO NOT USE NEWER THAT 3.4.4, I RECOMMEND TO USE VERSION 3.1.5, BECAUSE NEWER VERSION WILL GIVE SLOW PERFORMANCE)

  • you can get vlc.apk from here : https://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc-android/

  • open Command Prompt (cmd.exe) and goto C:\APK

  • to decompress/decompile vlc.apk type :

apktool d vlc.apk -o vlc_mod

apktool b vlc_mod -o vlc_mod.apk

  • open APK EDITOR STUDIO, click Tools -> Key Manager to create a sign key

  • in Keystroke Path input : C:/APK/MyKey.jks then click Create

  • input those all necessary fields (passwords, key name alias, your name & address, etc) then click OK, then close APK EDITOR STUDIO

  • now you can sign that vlc_mod.apk by right click on it Windows Explorer and click Sign APK then install it on your android device

  • If you're still insist to use latest VLC.APK you need to add --use-aapt2 in apktool command line e.g :

apktool d --use-aapt2 vlc.apk -o vlc_mod
  • and to build apk :
apktool b --use-aapt2 vlc_mod -o vlc_mod.apk

For LOCAL VIDEOS on your STORAGE, you need ES MEDIA PLAYER (by installing ES FILE EXPLORER) or FX MEDIA PLAYER (by installing FX FILE MANAGER)
