米国ドラマで勉強するときの字幕選別方法。


米国ドラマや映画で勉強するときの字幕があって不便になります。映像に字幕が含まれており、字幕をオフにすることができないポストイットや紙で覆って勉強していますか?

画面のフィルタアプリでスマートに字幕を選別ください(元の字幕を指しう作られたわけではない。)

使い方は以下の通りです。

アプリをダウンロードしてインストールする。 (アンドロイドのみサポートされます。)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hueysl.privacyscreen


動画を見る前に、アプリを起動させて動画を見ていてアプリを実行できるようにステータスバーのリンクを残しておきます。


映像のように、一度実行した後、終了させると、ステータスバーに戻って実行することができます。



勉強したい映像を実行した後、ステータスバーのフィルタアプリを実行します。
(そしてサイズと透明度を調節して字幕を隠します。)



そして、最初にアプリを実行すると、左右のサイズが調整されないのに...アプリのPreference Settingメニューから下をチェックしてくれると左右サイズ調節が可能です。
