What formats are supported?

We support four popular subtitle formats: SRT (SubRip), VTT (WebVTT), TXT (Plain Text), and JSON (Raw Data). SRT is the most widely compatible format, VTT is used for web videos, TXT gives you plain text without timestamps, and JSON provides structured data for developers.

Does this work with auto-generated subtitles?

Yes, our downloader works with both manually created and auto-generated YouTube subtitles. Auto-generated subtitles are created by YouTube's speech recognition technology and are available for most videos, even if the creator didn't upload manual captions.
