...a website created solely to test out overlaying softsubs on official donghua releases, and it should be painfully obvious that
I have literally zero experience in web design and coding. Everything you see here is achieved through intense googling and the immense help of several donghua and non-donghua loving friends. While it is created for
Guodong Subs, it is not explicitly named as such because:
- www.guodongsubs.com will be reinstated once we purchase a newer (and smaller) server,
- before I secure a way to embed official Tencent and Bilibili links, I would still need to use third-party raws (which Guodong is actively moving away from), and
- most if not all edits I make to the code here is trial and error and could crash the whole site anytime
As of 23 June 2021, there is still
no way to inject Tencent and Bilibili official videos to Videojs and subsequently Videojsass. Tencent retricts all external sites embeds to play only the first 3 minutes, and all Bilibili embeds are capped at 480p max. The only method to overlay softsubs on those right now is via chrome plugins:
AssLoader by
@regsvr32 (for full typeset) and any other subtitles loading extensions such as
Substital or
+Sub (srt only), all of them available on the Chrome Web Store. You may simply visit the official Tencent/Bilibili sites and watch the official episode with any one of those plugins. They will work, albeit still a buggy workaround. In some cases, we will pair our softsubs with raws provided by third parties, mainly
GM Team, until the official release makes to Youtube,
at which I will just replace the video source with the official source.
I am indebted to
@bugkkura for the inspiration and also for generously sharing her code. Without her this project would not have been possible.
