What's the difference between External, Internal or Hardcode subtitles?

Kigo Movie One gives you the flexibility to choose how subtitles are saved.

Internal subtitles: Embedded in the video file, offering broad compatibility. You can turn them on or off and choose from available subtitle languages.

External subtitles: Saved separately as SRT files, allowing you to customize the subtitle style, size, color, and more.

Hardcode subtitles: Permanently embedded into the video image, so they are always displayed during playback and cannot be turned off.

How to download HD videos?

Kigo Movie One supports video downloads in up to 4K and 8K resolution, depending on the platform and source video. For example, YouTube videos can be downloaded in up to 8K, while supported platforms such as Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+ Hotstar, Hulu Japan, Paramount+, Discovery+, U-NEXT, Peacock, DMM, NHK+, and Crunchyroll currently support downloads in up to 1080p.

Solution to "Failed 6123"
Too many people are currently using your account, causing the download to fail. Please check your stream plan limits and stop playing videos on other screens.
Solution to "Failed 6301"
The video you want to download is not available in your country. Please make sure the video can be played on the web player.
Solution to "Failed 1609"
The download process stopped because the computer screen was off. Please do not turn off the computer screen, sleep or hibernate your PC during the download process.
If you encounter the "Failed 1609" error while trying to download videos from Amazon Prime Video or Max, it's important to check if your computer supports HDCP. Please go to here to check the HDCP status. Click on the "V" icon and select "1.0" or another version from the drop-down list. Then, click on "Get HDCP Status" to check if your device supports HDCP-enabled content. If the result shows "HDCP is available for 1.0" or a similar message, it means that your computer is capable of downloading HD videos from Amazon Prime Video or Max. However, if you receive a message like "Argh! output-restricted," then you will only be able to download videos in medium or low quality.
If the probem persists, please contact the support team and provide the screenshot of the HDCP status result and log files for analysis.
Solution to "No results found" when searching videos by using links
Please ensure that the video link is copied from the details page, rather than the playback page. If the program cannot find the title by the URL, please try to search for the video using the title name.
