  2. Only if multiple tracks exist:
    • Opens the settings menu
    • Selects "Audio track" option
    • Chooses the original language track
    • Closes the settings menu
  3. Cleans up after completion

Installation

  1. Install Tampermonkey browser extension
  2. Install this script
  3. Visit any YouTube video - it will automatically select the original audio track

Troubleshooting

If you need to debug issues, open your browser's console (F12 -> Console tab) to see detailed logs of what the script is doing.
