Overview

Dropout but it saves your volume and subtitle settings. It also adds Watch Parties.

This is a simple extension that makes the Dropout streaming service remember your volume settings and enabled subtitles. Once installed, volume changes and subtitle settings will be persistent and no longer reset whenever the page is reloaded or a different video is played. Additionally, this addon allows creating watch parties in Dropout, allowing you to easily watch videos in sync with your friends. Currently available features: - Save current volume and playback rate settings for other videos - Save currently selected subtitle track and subtitle font/style settings - Watch Parties: Synchronize your friends video players with yours to watch content perfectly in sync - Scheduled watch sessions: Synchronize everyone's video players based on a fixed starting time: Useful for large scheduled watch parties, e.g. on community Discord servers

Not sure if you actually see these replies. I got one other report about issues like this, and while I unfortunately was unable to reproduce it, I made some changes that hopefully solve the issue. The issue likely started when the addon was updated to use a new system to get and store player settings, which now allows saving subtitle font/style settings. Firstly, I re-enabled the old system of saving settings in addition to the new one. This means if the new system somehow breaks, you should still be able to save volume, playback rate, and the enabled subtitles track, just not subtitle styles. Secondly, I changed how player setting changes are detected, to hopefully avoid collisions with other addons. This update is released as version 1.7.0, and will probably be available here in about 24 hours. If you see this, I would appreciate it if you could test the new version and let me know if it solved the issue for you.
