Plugin to add subtitles in Basque to Netflix movies

You need a paid Netflix account, which serves for inspection on your computer via Chrome or Firefox browsers.

It can be added as a plugin or additional extension for the following browsers:

  • Chrome
  • FireFox

To use it, IMPORTANT: not enter Netflix and search there for the movie, but open the plugin itself and see that it has a menu extension that opens:

From this list you have to click on the available films and that is how that film will start in Basque. The example of the top image is Baby Driver.

What movies are currently available with this option? A few dozen, here are listed.
