Description

When using auto-generated English subtitles as the source for translation to Traditional Chinese, the resulting subtitles do not display properly on YouTube. However, the Simplified Chinese subtitles work correctly.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open a YouTube video with auto-generated English subtitles
  2. Set the target language to Traditional Chinese in either the source or the target default.
  3. Observe that the Traditional Chinese subtitles do not display correctly

Expected Behavior

Traditional Chinese subtitles should display properly, like how Simplified Chinese subtitles are working.

Proposed Solution

Implement an additional translation step within the extension:

  1. Set the first subtitle (above the second subtitle) to English (auto-generated)
  2. Set the second subtitle (below the first subtitle) to Simplified Chinese
  3. Translate the second subtitle to Traditional Chinese via external services
  4. With it the Traditional Chinese subtitle should display correctly

Additional Notes

This issue appears to be on YouTube's end, but the proposed solution would allow the extension to handle it independently of YouTube's translation service.
