Joshua Church (ID: 00000048dd2939c6) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 12/21/2021 Takes a little bit to get started, but works well. I noticed it will blank out the audio for whatever chunk of text is in the subtitle, not just the offending word. Have you considered integration with a service like put.io? That would really expand its utility! And thanks!

Jill Timoney (ID: 0000007cb50dfb60) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 11/26/2021 This filter is not working. I have added the words, in the format provided and saved them. In the Netflix app, I have turned on the subtitles in Netflix and the profanity just continues. When I go to Netflix through the Chrome browser, the subtitles shrink to a strange line with, widely tiny spaced letters and there's no sound of voices at all. Please can someone help.
