YouTube Anti Translate by Petr

Rated 5 out of 5
by Firefox user 18767885, a year agoSorry, I didn't keep my login details, I am 18763788. I'm sometimes a little overzealous about privacy and creating accounts...
Also sorry about my english, I'm belgian, speaking french.
I watch a lot of english content and YES, YouTube force translated (dubbed) audio along titles and descriptions! Those fake AI voices are nightmare.
Having the choice to turn this on is not bad. But in fact, we have to turn this off on EACH video. We feel cheated by the translated titles and taken for idiots with the dubbing.
So, you speak english but if your account language is different, or maybe because of your location, the nightmare begins...
I'm exaggerating a bit, but I read comments from people who don't understand what's going on. (firefox, reddit, google, ...)
I'm looking for a serious solution almost every day, and the number of dissatisfied people is growing more and more.
Again, maybe I am overzealous but I prefer to trust one single addon. Especially if the source code is available. (currently, I'm just testing in a sandbox... you can call me paranoid ^^)
Other addons or scripts have already been created but are no longer maintained and does not work anymore.
I believe that a complete addon can become popular, if Youtube does not listen to its frustrated users. This may motivate to keep it up...
Here is the currently working addon:
addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/original-youtube-audio/
There may be some interesting information in the comments. I'll keep my login details to answer you, if needed!
Have a great 2025!

- Rated 3 out of 5by isa, a month agoIt worked perfectly for me and was THE most useful youtube add-on to have. But today it stopped working. I genuinely don't know how I'll continue to use youtube without it, because, as someone who speaks more than one language, having to choose between seeing the videos in my native language translated to english or seeing the videos in english translated to my native language is hellish. I'm so thankful for this extension and I really hope it starts working again.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Lycas, 2 months agoMost of the time it works but sometimes it causes the channel name to bounce around like crazy.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Florian, 4 months agoIt works, but at the moment when it's activated I can view videos only in 360p and every other option isn't visible/available. When deactivated all the other options appear and can be chosen.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 19616552, 4 months agoworks for searches and sidebar, everything I've wanted since Youtube started forcing this on us.
feature request tho: would be nice if it also works on "play next" / "end screen card" or whatever it's called; when a video ends and youtube suggests a few videos to watch next, right on the player on top of the black screen. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14535152, 4 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15538667, 5 months agoExtension d'intérêt public! Youtube n'a pas l'air de considérer l’existence d'êtres multilingues ou souhaitant s'améliorer par la pratique... Un grand merci de faire disparaitre ces horribles traductions imposées.
