install

You need to install ffmpeg and curl and add them to PATH, curl is usually installed by default on all systems including windows11, if you only use interactive translation, you don't need to install ffmpeg

• Download the latest version of mpv-translate.js and copy it to the mpv script directory, or use mpsm mpsm install mpv-translate
• Add shortcut keys ctrl+t script-message translate and ctrl+i script-message interactive-translate to your input.conf
• If everything goes well, you can use ctrl+t to start global translation (requires ffmpeg and curl and only supports local videos), ctrl+i to start interactive translation (requires curl)
• You can customize the styles of subtitles and tooltips, see mpv-translate.conf
