At the W3C Internationalization Checker page, (http://validator.w3.org/i18n-checker/ ) I got no errors about language issues for my website fxrehber.com but when I check my website for web crawlers at a website like http://tools.seobook.com/general/spider-test/ I get the text like these:
SPK Lisansl Forex irketlerinin Kar la t rmalar ve Kullan c Yorumlar
FXrehber com Forex irketleri kar la t rma ve yorumlar Forex'te g venle
i lem yap n T rkiye'de ofisi bulunan
My website is in Turkish, so it should look like this:
SPK Lisanslı Forex şirketlerinin Karşılaştırmaları ve Kullanıcı Yorumları
FXrehber com Forex şirketleri karşılaştırma ve yorumları Forex'te güvenle
işlem yapın Türkiye'de ofisi bulunan
I'm not sure if it's normal behaviour and this is a problem for SEO.
Consider the tools.seobook.com service useless; it apparently cannot even read UTF-8 data correctly (when in document body – it seems to get the meta tag contents OK, making the behavior even more absurd).
If you search for e.g. “SPK Lisanslı Forex şirketlerinin Karşılaştırmaları” in Google, you’ll see your page well placed, with the extract of page content correctly displayed by Google. Ditto when searching with Bing, Yahoo, Yandex.

I get strange results in the Mendeley Web Importer on many of the pages in our website, lens.org. For example, this page: https://www.lens.org/lens/search shows a list of patents. I know that Mendeley doesn't really work with patents, so I wouldn't expect the Web Importer to detect anything to import. But when I click the button I get this:
Where do all those results come from?
The first result, "Room-temperature fabrication of transparent flexible thin-film transistors..." shows up in a lot of pages that it shouldn't. For example, on this page: https://www.lens.org/lens/scholar/article/091-863-869-534-178/main, clicking the Mendeley Web Importer button gives me 2 results when I expect to only get 1.
I've searched the page content for the DOI (10.1038/nature03090) but it doesn't appear to be there. There is only one .Z3988 element on the page, and that is for the article displayed on the page. Where is the extra result coming from?
Once dropped the Mendeley Web Importer will try to find any references on the page. This means that sometimes it can find references that are not immediately visible to the user.
In your case, that DOI is actually present in the html, see:
For single article page such as https://www.lens.org/lens/scholar/article/091-863-869-534-178/main, the Mendeley Web Importer would be more accurate if Highwire Press tags were included in the <head>of the page. Example:
<meta name="citation_title" content="Global and local fMRI signals driven by neurons defined optogenetically by type and wiring.">
<meta name="citation_authors" content="Lee, Jin Hyung; Durand, Remy; Gradinaru, Viviana; Zhang, Feng; Goshen, Inbal; Kim, Dae-Shik; Fenno, Lief E; Ramakrishnan, Charu; Deisseroth, Karl">
<meta name="citation_journal_title" content="Nature">
<meta name="citation_publisher" content="Nature Publishing Group">
<meta name="citation_issue" content="7299">
<meta name="citation_volume" content="465">

This is somewhat of a duplicate question of Does YouTube API forbid to download video captions if you are not it's owner?, Get YouTube captions and Does YouTube API forbid to download video captions if you are not it's owner?, which all basically say it's not possible unless to download captions via the YouTube API unless you are the owner or third-party contributions are not enabled; however, my question is how to sites like http://downsub.com/ or http://www.lilsubs.com/ have access to all captions?
In other words, when I access the YouTube API myself (even with youtubepartner and youtube.force-ssl scopes), I can only download the captions of some videos, but when I try the same videos that failed for me with 403: The permissions associated with the request are not sufficient to download the caption track. The request might not be properly authorized, or the video order might not have enabled third-party contributions for this caption. on these other sites, it works fine. I'm assuming they are using the YouTube API to access the captions, but what special sauce are they using? Some special partner key? An different API version? Are they just scraping from the videos themselves or something?
Send a GET request on:
http://video.google.com/timedtext?lang={LANG}&v={VIDEOID}
Example for your video in comment: http://video.google.com/timedtext?lang=ko&v=0db1_qWZjRA
Let's look at another example of yours, i.e. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7068mw-6lmI (and I agree about differentiation part in your comment).
There are multiple subtitles available for the video
English
Korean
Spanish
Korean (auto-generated) also called asr (automatic speech recognition)
These stand for the subtitle name parameter (i.e., name=English).
lang stands for the country code.
In your example: https://www.youtube.com/api/timedtext?lang=es-MX&v=7068mw-6lmI&name=Spanish
If subtitle track is available, it is possible to do translation form it, namely using tlang parameter.
https://www.youtube.com/api/timedtext?lang=en&v=7068mw-6lmI&name=English&tlang=lv
https://www.youtube.com/api/timedtext?lang=ko&v=7068mw-6lmI&name=Korean&tlang=lv
This would be my bid for what these sites are using, i.e. translation of the available subtitle track (confirm by trying to use a video without subtitle track as input for one of their sites).
As for asr signature seems to always be needed, but as long as one of the subtitle tracks are available, you could use that for translation. E.g. in your OP comment example:
https://www.youtube.com/api/timedtext?lang=en&v=vx6NCUyg1NE&tlang=lv
Looks like the last example is special with both of subtitle tracks being asr (checked with Chrome -> Inspect -> Network) therefore you need to omit the subtitle name parameter part. This difference unfortunately is not visible in YouTube video's settings wheel.
A 2022 answer:
Option 1: Send a curl request to the webpage: curl -L "https://youtu.be/YbJOTdZBX1g", search for timedtext in the result, and you would get a URL. replace \u0026 with & and you get the link for the subtitle.
Option 2: Use the yt-dlp package:
# For installing see: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp#with-pip
from yt_dlp import YoutubeDL
ydl_opts = {
"skip_download": True,
"writesubtitles": True,
"subtitleslangs": ["all", "-live_chat"],
# Looks like formats available are vtt, ttml, srv3, srv2, srv1, json3
"subtitlesformat": "json3",
# You can skip the following option
"sleep_interval_subtitles": 1,
}
with YoutubeDL(ydl_opts) as ydl:
ydl.download(["YbJOTdZBX1g"])
There is this unofficial API used by Youtube :
https://www.youtube.com/api/timedtext?lang={LANG}&v={VIDEO_ID}
LANG here is ISO 639-1 2 letter country code. For your example it would be :
https://www.youtube.com/api/timedtext?lang=ko&v=0db1_qWZjRA
You can check it in network tab while toggling the closed caption button :
I have used youtube-transcript-api successfully to retrieve transcripts. The below is a demo to dump the transcript into HTML with links back to the timestamps in the video:
import sys
from youtube_transcript_api import YouTubeTranscriptApi
video_id = sys.argv[1]
# Retrieve the available transcripts
transcript_list = YouTubeTranscriptApi.list_transcripts(video_id)
# Just use the first transcript, let it raise an exception if none exist.
transcript = next(iter(transcript_list))
print("<html><body>")
for line_map in transcript.fetch():
st_sec = int(line_map['start'] / 60)
st_msec = int(line_map['start'] - st_sec * 60)
tstmp = f"{st_sec}:{st_msec}"
link_to_tstmp = f"https://youtu.be/{video_id}?t={st_sec*60}"
tstmp_str = ("%2d:%-2d" % (st_sec, st_msec)).replace(" ", " ")
#print(f"{st_sec}:{st_msec} {line_map['text']}")
print("""%s %s<br/>""" % (link_to_tstmp, tstmp_str, line_map['text']))
print("</html></body>")
If there are multiple transcripts, the library provides API to search by language etc.
You can further tweak the logic to merge text so you only get one link every so many minutes. I got good results for a lecture by linking at every 1 min and format the lines into a HTML table.
I am using python and Beautiful soup to read html pages. Unfortunately some sites redirect to my Geo region (AU) so I can't retrieve the target countries version i.e. (UK, US, FR, NZ...)
I have tried using a VPN service but this requires me to manually change the region so I can't automate the process. I have tried using the python quartz.Coregraphics library to click the options on screen but this is temperamental.
Is there a way I can achieve this programmatically?
I have manage to nut this one out myself. Best answered by example for reading a uk based site.
import urllib2
url = 'Some-uk-url'
req = urllib2.Request(url)
req.add_header('Accept-Language', 'en-gb')
req.add_header('X-Forwarded-For', [a uk proxy ipaddress here])
htmltext = urllib2.urlopen(req).read()
I am trying to identify youtube link (generally), and I wonder what top-level domains is youtube using?
So far I know about:
.com (youtube.com)
.be (youtu.be)
Are there any others?
PS: for those looking for checking youtube/vimeo video particulary I would recommend to check how to check the valid Youtube url using jquery ...
At the moment, YouTube videos can be accessed by two kinds of link, either the usual URL generated by the UI itself, as you click from one video to the next:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRgl-78sDX2
Or through a sharing URL, created within the UI by clicking the "share" button:
https://youtu.be/6DzSAaNQHR8
Regarding the second part of your question, what domains are required for access to YouTube? Unfortunately this is a moving target, as the YouTube changes. At the time of writing (Mar 2015), that list is as follows:
*.youtube.com
*.googlevideo.com
*.ytimg.com
In addition to the core domains above, some ancillary domains are also needed to display the ads, etc on most YouTube pages:
apis.google.com
*.googleusercontent.com
*.gstatic.com
The bulk of the traffic itself comes from *.googlevideo.com. Beginning in late 2014, YouTube started progressively enabling SSL on the youtube.com and googlevideo.com domains. You'll need to be aware of this if you're using this information on a filtering or caching device.
Also note this was tested through a browser; native clients (iOS, Android, etc) may operate differently.
I have discovered these Youtube domains so far:
youtube.com // https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfGZ8NyGFS8
youtu.be // https://youtu.be/dfGZ8NyGFS8
youtube-nocookie.com // https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/dfGZ8NyGFS8
also youtube.com has a mobile version on subdomain:
m.youtube.com // https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dfGZ8NyGFS8
I use this list for PHP function parse_url. You may find this question usefull too.
Here are some of the main domains, subdomains and gTLDs related to youtube
1st Level (domains):
.googlevideo.com
.youtu.be
.youtube.com

There are also the following domains which are not included in the table:
m.youtube.com
m.youtube.<country code>
youtu.be (with and without the trailing dot)
<country code>.youtube.com (e.g. jp.youtube.com)
youtube.com. (with the trailing dot)
youtube.<country code>. (with the trailing dot)
domains like gaming.youtube.com in YouTube's sitemap https://www.youtube.com/sitemaps/sitemap.xml (see linked sub-sitemaps)
For comprehensiveness, I went through Wikipedia's 676 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes, took all possible two-letter language codes and appended them to the URL as https://www.youtube.com/?gl=<language code>, retrieved the URL, and checked if the source code contained the text "gl":"<language code>". If the language code is not found (e.g. ZZZZZ), the source code will use the default language code of "gl":"CA". Additionally, I went through Mozilla's Public Suffix list https://wiki.mozilla.org/Public_Suffix_List and took all of those and tried every single one.
Here are the following URLs that I couldn't find a corresponding TLD for (it doesn't imply that there should be one, however) which had the TLD code in the URL also in the HTML source:
https://www.youtube.com/?gl=CY
https://www.youtube.com/?gl=LI
https://www.youtube.com/?gl=NP
https://www.youtube.com/?gl=PG
https://www.youtube.com/?gl=YE
Bash script to get URL redirects (sometimes this script doesn't follow the redirect; I am not sure if it is because of my flaky internet, a rate-limit, or because of the script):
while read line; do echo "$line -> "$(curl -Ls -o /dev/null -w %{url_effective} $line); done < youtube_urls.txt;
There's even .youtube, which is quite cool I think.
See https://lifeinaday.youtube/ for example.
If you are trying to catch youtube video links I am using this regexp part I don't know they use national domains for example if you go to youtube.mx they redirect you back to .com with Mexico localizations... I guess they figured out that they cannot host content on some national domains for example if you use domain of Saudi Arabia you have to accept all local laws of Saudi Arabia and if somebody put content that is in violation of their laws owner of website might be in serious legal trouble... so they are using .com for everything and keep content under jurisdiction and laws of US
https?:\/\/ # Either http or https
(?:[\w]+\.)* # Optional subdomains
(?: # Group host alternatives.
youtu\.be/ # Either youtu.be,
| youtube\.com # or youtube.com
| youtube-nocookie\.com # or youtube-nocookie.com
) # End Host Group
By this page http://data.iana.org/TLD/tlds-alpha-by-domain.txt
There is also a .youtube domain itself.
As in the domain https://rewind.youtube
This gave me an idea. Why not use these domains as channel redirects.
eg. My channel (WMTV) will have the domain https://wmtv.youtube
Of course, this would be limited to bigger creators, but as time goes on, this might be a great feature from an individual YouTuber´s marketing standpoint.
I use resource string for text appear in xaml pages by using these
{Binding Path=LocalizedResources.AppName, Source={StaticResource LocalizedStrings}}
But where and how do I globalize application title in App list and Tile? Is it in WMAppManefist.xml? I tried the above syntax in App Title and token Title but don't seem to work.
Having followed an article provided by Alaa Masound be sure to use:
#AppResLib.dll,-101
instead of:
#AppResLib.dll,-200
as your tile title, as defined in Microsoft resource dll template (AppResLib.rc):
#define AppTitle 100
#define AppTileTitle 101
So the reason for the problem is a discrepancy between Microsoft source code and its description.
