Features:
Automatic subtitle detection for Thai and Lao captions

English translations shown alongside original lyrics
Draggable overlay positioned right on the video player
Toggle between Thai and Lao meaning sources
Works on any YouTube video with Thai or Lao closed captions

How It Works:
Navigate to a YouTube video with Thai or Lao captions
LyricLens automatically detects the language and fetches caption data
As the video plays, the overlay shows the current lyric line with romanization and translation
Click the extension icon to see status, detected language, and toggle settings

Supported Languages:
Thai (TH) -- full transliteration and English translation

Privacy:
No personal data is collected. No tracking, no ads. The only network request is to fetch caption/translation data for the current video. Language preference is stored locally.
