Transcription is writing down text that captures all of the speech in a video. Creating transcripts and subtitles starts with transcription. Instead, a copy of ffmpeg.exe had to be placed directly in the same folder as youtube-dl.exe for it to be recognized as present during post-processing (you could also use a symbolic link with a proper file extension if you wanted to save some space).What are transcripts and how are they different from subtitles and how can they be used? Let’s start with what they have in common, discuss the differences, and see how easy it is to convert YouTube captions to text files. Youtube-dl -sub-lang en,es -write-sub -convert-subs srt -skip-download įinally, while I don't know the source of this problem, youtube-dl.exe (2021.05.16) on Windows 10 21H1 (May 2021) did not seem to recognize ffmpeg in the System Path for me. Confirmed with youtube-dl.exe v2021.05.16. The second automatic option (apparently) doesn't work with -skip-download currently e.g.: # Fail! Subtitles will be downloaded but remain in their original e.g. You can get Windows builds of FFmpeg from third-parties, such as the builds kindly provided by v.
In either case, ffmpeg must reside somewhere on your system. However, there are several caveats to converting subtitles: There is also an option to -convert-subs automatically with youtube-dl/FFmpeg e.g.: youtube-dl -sub-lang en,es -write-sub -convert-subs srt vtt format, you can use ffmpeg to convert them manually with e.g.: ffmpeg -i input.vtt output.srt If you prefer not to have your subtitles in the. You can even get all 5 available subtitle files at once with the -all-subs option: youtube-dl -all-subs -skip-download To skip downloading the video and get just the subtitles, add the -skip-download option e.g.: youtube-dl -sub-lang en,es -write-sub -skip-download English and Spanish subtitles (along with the video) using: youtube-dl -sub-lang en,es -write-sub Note that only 5 relevant options are listed as the Korean (auto-generated) subtitles are omitted. Will produce a list of subtitle options, including a list of those specific to the given video. Using this historical K-Drama episode as an example, we can see that there are 6 possible languages for subtitles available ( YouTube Player > Settings > Subtitles/CC): Languages of the subtitles to download (optional) separated by commas, use -list-subs for available language tags Referencing the official documentation for youtube-dl, the -sub-lang option takes: I'm trying to get 2+ subs of a YouTube video, that tutorial was only for 1 subtitle. Alternatively, you could also use the -all-subs option. Use the -sub-lang option to specify the subtitle language(s) you are interested in, as implied in the chosen answer to this Super User question. Is there a way to download a Youtube video with 2 or more subtitles using youtuble-dl and ignore auto-generated subtitles?
