The purpose is to provide interlinear subtitles for youtube movies. I am adding step-by step instructions here so you can get it
working.
1. Download VLC MEDIA PLAYER
or some other player that has a speed control and allows you to add subtitle
files to the movies you watch.
2. Get an application that downloads youtube videos, then use it to download the movie.
You can find these applications by doing a search, or you can get YouTube downloader here:
YOUTUBE DOWNLOADER
3. Create a directory to put the movie and subtitle files in.
4. Download the movie whose link is listed below using YouTube downloader into
the directory you created.
5. Download the subtitle files from the link below on this page, and unzip them
into the same directory.
4. Using VLC player, go to media > open file to load the movie.
5. Using VLC player, go to Subtitle > Add Subtitle File to load the subtitles.
6. You will need to slow down the playback. The easiest way to control
playback is with the "[" and the "]" buttons. To slow down
playback, use the "[" button. The "]" button speeds it up again. I
normally set playback somewhere between 50% - 70%, when you press one of these
two buttons, the speed will appear in the upper right hand
corner of the screen.
With VLC Player, you can hit the spacebar to stop playback on anything you want to review, and hit it again to restart.

Note that direction of the translation is important, because it tells you where the translation errors may be.
If the first language listed is Russian, then the translation was done from Russian to English, therefore the
Russian is good, but the English may not be perfectly translated.
The asterisk (*) indicates that I have reviewed the subtitles, meaning
that I have gone though and checked to find definitions or other faults that I
can correct; that does not mean that the subtitle will be perfect, by a
long shot, because I am still learning Russian, and, there are just some things
that only a native speaker could fix, I fix the obvious, look up definitions for
words that did not get translated, and, leave anything else that I do not know
how to deal with intact. Some words you just do not find defintions for,
and some of the wording defies correction without deeper knowledge of Russian.
