Mode "AUTO" not working properly for languages other than english

So was trying to use this extension to detect text from comics.
As we know comics consist of text over various places inside speech bubble.
So i changed mode to AUTO and tried it for language English.
And it worked perfectly.
As soon as i changed language to Chinese i didn't get any satisfactory results.
Would like to know if there are any solution to the issue.

Thank you @jeromewu

OCR in extension won't work

Hello! I have installed the extension but on button click no OCR occurs... nothing happens. What might be the reason? I just cloned the repo and uploaded the files. The popup opens but that's all

Cannot read property getURL of undefined

It's not working for me in Chrome 74.0.3729.157:

main.js:7 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'getURL' of undefined
at HTMLButtonElement.doOCR (main.js:7)

Firefox Webextension

I am not able to run this extension in FF. Any plan to make it compatible?
