User reviews
Very nice addons. But would be very convenience if there is a toggle options to turn on / off. Right now, I'd have to go into the Add-Ons manager to turn it off. Why would I want to turn it off? Yes, the second subtitles does allow the "Off" option, but then the main subtitle is floating weirdly on top, even in Compact
