Streaming services and subtitle detection
tip
For streaming services not listed below, asbplayer can attempt a best-effort generic subtitle detection which works for ~85% of websites.
You can always request a dedicated parser for any website, even if the generic parser detects subtitles, through an issue or submit your own implementation in a PR on GitHub.
| Service | Compatibility | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Amazon Prime | ✓ | Timing sometimes off by 30 seconds |
| Bandai Channel | ✓ | |
