How it works:
Simply pause the video and click the VidText Copy toggle button that appears in the top right corner. You can then select the text you want from the video and it will be automatically copied to your clipboard. Paste the text anywhere like your favourite note-taking app or code editor.

Extra tips:
Use the keyboard shortcut instead of clicking the toggle and pausing the video to speed up the process even further - Ctrl+Shift+X on Windows or Command+Shift+X on Mac.

VidText Copy has a customizable menu that allows you to personalize the extension to suit your needs. You can change how the text is displayed, or change how the text is copied to the clipboard. Indentation mode for copying code will preserve the indentation of the code. This is important for programming languages such as Python.

Supported languages and sites:
VidText Copy uses the latest AI Computer Vision (OCR) technology to detect the text in the video.

It supports detecting text in 50+ languages including English, Hindi, Turkish, French, Spanish, and many more.

VidText Copy works on all video sites including YouTube, Udemy, Coursera, Sharepoint, as well as social media sites and university/college lecture recordings. You can even use Selectext on local video files by simply dragging and dropping the video file into the Firefox browser.

Note:
This extension uses OCR API and you need an API key. Generate the same from the OCR provider. Save the key in Extension options (about
--> Details --> Preferences OR Right Click on extension --> Manage Extension --> Preferences).
