|
||
"FAQ_Q1": "Can I watch Netflix, Emby or Jellyfin together in sync with friends?",
|
||
"FAQ_A1": "KoalaSync works with many supported websites that use a standard browser video player, including Netflix, YouTube, Twitch, Emby, Jellyfin and self-hosted media servers. Compatibility depends on the website, browser and player and can change when a site updates.",
|
||
"FAQ_Q_VIDEO_ACCESS": "Does KoalaSync stream the video to my friends?",
|
||
"FAQ_A_VIDEO_ACCESS": "No. KoalaSync does not stream, host, share, or bypass access to video content. Everyone watches the video locally in their own browser and needs their own access to the website or streaming service, such as their own Netflix account. KoalaSync only synchronizes playback actions like play, pause, and seeking.",
|
||
"FAQ_Q2": "Is KoalaSync a free alternative to Teleparty?",
|
||
"FAQ_A2": "Yes. KoalaSync is free and open source under the MIT License, with no premium tier, locked features, ads or required user account.",
|
||
"FAQ_Q3": "Does KoalaSync work with Emby, Jellyfin and self-hosted media servers?",
|
||
"FAQ_A3": "Yes. KoalaSync supports many standard browser video players used by Emby, Jellyfin, Plex and custom self-hosted streaming setups. Compatibility depends on the player. You can also self-host the KoalaSync relay server with Docker.",
|
||
"FAQ_Q4": "Which browsers and platforms support KoalaSync?",
|
||
"FAQ_A4": "Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Opera, Brave, and all Chromium-based browsers. Install it directly from the Chrome Web Store or Firefox Add-ons, no manual configuration needed.",
|
||
"FAQ_Q5": "Do all my friends need the extension installed?",
|
||
"FAQ_A5": "Yes, each participant needs KoalaSync installed, but there's no sign-up or account creation. Simply click the invitation link, install the extension if you haven't already, and you'll join the room automatically in seconds.",
|
||
"FAQ_Q6": "Is my data safe? What if I don't trust the official server?",
|
||
"FAQ_A6": "The official KoalaSync relay does not store room, sync, watch, or chat history in a database. Active room data exists temporarily in memory and is removed when the room becomes empty or expires after inactivity. Technical connection logs may be created for security and abuse prevention; their retention depends on the server configuration. Chat messages are end-to-end encrypted and are not stored as server-side history. You can also self-host the relay with Docker.",
|
||
"FAQ_Q7": "Can I fix quiet dialogue and loud explosions when watching videos in the browser?",
|
||
"FAQ_A7": "Yes. KoalaSync includes an audio compressor that reduces the difference between quiet and loud parts of a video. It runs locally through the Web Audio API, so audio data is not sent to the relay. Open the popup, create or join a room, then enable it under Settings → Audio Processing.",

|

"ALT_TELEPARTY_INTRO": "KoalaSync and Teleparty both help with the same annoying problem: watching something together without doing the whole \"3, 2, 1, play\" routine. Both include text chat, but they take a different approach.<br><br>Teleparty makes the most sense if you want its more integrated watch-party experience or want to watch on mobile. KoalaSync is designed for desktop browser watch parties across a wider range of normal browser video players. Its built-in text chat is end-to-end encrypted and live-only, while voice or video calls remain separate.<br><br>The main reason I built KoalaSync was flexibility. It is meant to work with almost any website that uses a normal browser video player, not just a fixed list of platforms. That includes self-hosted setups like Emby, Jellyfin and Plex, local/private domains, and a lot of normal video pages in the browser.",
|
||
"ALT_TELEPARTY_WHEN_TELE_TITLE": "When Teleparty may still make sense",
|
||
"ALT_TELEPARTY_WHEN_TELE_BODY": "Teleparty can still be the better choice if you prefer its more integrated watch-party experience or need mobile support. Both tools include text chat, so chat alone is no longer the deciding difference. KoalaSync's chat is end-to-end encrypted and live-only; voice and video calls still use a separate app.<br><br>Mobile is the other big reason. Teleparty has an app, while KoalaSync currently only works on desktop browsers. If you want to sync Netflix on a phone or tablet, KoalaSync is not the right tool for that right now.<br><br>So if mobile support and a more integrated platform are the things you care about most, Teleparty may simply fit your setup better.",
|
||
"ALT_TELEPARTY_WHEN_KOALA_TITLE": "When KoalaSync may fit better",
|
||
"ALT_TELEPARTY_WHEN_KOALA_BODY": "KoalaSync fits better if you want a flexible desktop browser sync tool instead of something tied to a short platform list.<br><br>It works with almost any website that uses a normal browser video player. That is especially useful for Emby, Jellyfin, Plex, private media servers, local domains, or smaller video sites that classic watch party tools usually ignore.<br><br>It is also free, open source, does not require accounts, and can be self-hosted if you want to run your own relay. I built it because I wanted something privacy-friendly that worked with my own Emby setup, not another closed platform just for a few big streaming sites.",
|
||
"ALT_TELEPARTY_MAIN_DIFF_TITLE": "The main difference",
|
||
"ALT_TELEPARTY_MAIN_DIFF_BODY": "Teleparty is more of an integrated watch-party product with mobile support. KoalaSync is a flexible desktop-browser sync layer with end-to-end encrypted live text chat.<br><br>That sounds like a small difference, but it changes the use case a lot. If you need a mobile watch-party app, Teleparty makes sense. If you want broad browser-player support, including self-hosted media, without giving the relay readable chat messages, KoalaSync is the simpler fit.",
|
||
"ALT_TELEPARTY_LIMITS_TITLE": "Honest limitations",
|
||
"ALT_TELEPARTY_LIMITS_BODY": "KoalaSync is not magic and it is not trying to hide its limits. It currently works only on desktop browsers. It includes end-to-end encrypted text chat, but no voice, video or webcam chat, and it has no mobile app.<br><br>Compatibility also depends on the browser and the video player. KoalaSync should work with almost any normal browser video player, but websites can change their players, DRM behavior or browser restrictions at any time.<br><br>KoalaSync is not affiliated with Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video, YouTube, Teleparty, Emby, Jellyfin, Plex or any other brand mentioned here. The names are only used to explain typical use cases.",

"ALT_TELEPARTY_SUMMARY_TITLE": "Summary",
|
||
"ALT_TELEPARTY_SUMMARY_BODY": "Both tools include text chat. If you need mobile support or prefer Teleparty's more integrated watch-party experience, Teleparty may be the better fit. If you want free, open-source desktop browser sync with end-to-end encrypted live chat that works with almost any normal video player, including self-hosted media servers like Emby, Jellyfin and Plex, KoalaSync is probably the better match.",

|
||
"ALT_SCREEN_INTRO": "Screen sharing works, and sometimes it is honestly enough. One person shares their screen, everyone else watches, and you are done.<br><br>But for longer movie nights or watching episodes together, it can get annoying. The video quality depends on the sharer’s upload, CPU, browser, and whatever compression Discord, Teamspeak, Zoom or another call app applies. Also, only one person really controls the playback.",
|
||
"ALT_SCREEN_WHEN_ENOUGH_TITLE": "When screen sharing is enough",
|
||
"ALT_SCREEN_WHEN_ENOUGH_BODY": "Screen sharing is fine when you want the fastest possible setup. If only one person has access to the video, or everyone is okay with one person controlling play, pause and seeking, it may be the simplest option.<br><br>It also makes sense when quality is not a big deal, when nobody needs their own subtitles or audio settings, and when the person sharing is comfortable showing that browser window or screen.",
|
||
"ALT_SCREEN_WHEN_ANNOYING_TITLE": "Where screen sharing gets annoying",
|
||
"ALT_SCREEN_WHEN_ANNOYING_BODY": "The biggest downside is that not everyone is watching in their own player. One person streams their screen, and everyone else only sees that stream.<br><br>That can mean worse video quality, compressed audio, delayed playback, and less control for everyone else. Subtitles and audio tracks are also whatever the sharer picked.<br><br>There is also the privacy side. If you switch windows or tabs, people may briefly see your browser tabs, email, Reddit, chats or other private stuff. You can work around that with a separate window, but it is still something you have to think about.",
|
||
"ALT_SCREEN_WHY_CLEANER_TITLE": "Why KoalaSync can feel cleaner",
|
||
"ALT_SCREEN_WHY_CLEANER_BODY": "KoalaSync does not stream your screen. Everyone watches the video locally in their own browser, and KoalaSync only keeps playback actions like play, pause and seeking in sync.<br><br>That means everyone can use fullscreen on their own device, use their own subtitle or audio settings if the player supports it, and keep the voice chat separate in Discord, Teamspeak or another call.<br><br>For movie nights, that can feel a lot cleaner than one person broadcasting their screen. It is especially useful for browser-based setups like Emby, Jellyfin, Plex, local files opened in the browser, private domains, or other websites with normal browser video players.",
|
||
"ALT_SCREEN_LIMITS_TITLE": "Honest limitations",
|
||
"ALT_SCREEN_LIMITS_BODY": "KoalaSync includes end-to-end encrypted text chat, but it is not a replacement for a voice or video call. If you want to talk while watching, you still use Discord, Teamspeak, Signal, WhatsApp or whatever you normally use.<br><br>Everyone also needs access to the video or page on their own device. KoalaSync does not bypass subscriptions, logins, DRM, regional restrictions or platform rules.<br><br>It is currently desktop-browser only, has no built-in voice, video or webcam chat, and compatibility always depends on the browser and the video player.",
|
||
"ALT_SCREEN_SUMMARY_TITLE": "Summary",
|
||
"ALT_SCREEN_SUMMARY_BODY": "Screen sharing is the simplest option when you just want something quick and do not care much about quality, privacy or individual control.
