FAQ

It says there are no subtitles.
That video genuinely has none. If the uploader added no captions and YouTube produced no auto-generated track, there is nothing to fetch. This is common on music-only clips and very short videos.
What is different about 'auto-generated'?
It was produced by YouTube's speech recognition rather than written by a person. Expect errors around unclear speech, names and technical terms. If a manual track exists in the same language it will be noticeably more accurate. The list marks which is which.
What kind of translation is this?
It is YouTube's own automatic translation — we do not translate anything ourselves. If the source track is auto-generated, recognition errors carry straight into the translation, so quality varies.
SRT, VTT or TXT?
SRT is the safest choice for video editors and players. VTT is for video embedded on web pages. TXT, with no timestamps, is best when you only want the words.
Do private or age-restricted videos work?
No. Only public videos anyone can watch without logging in.
Can I use the subtitles freely?
Copyright stays with the creator. Use them only for personal, lawful purposes such as your own uploads or content you have permission to save; redistributing them or putting them into other content needs separate permission.
