Install `yt-dlp`.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
yt-dlp --write-auto-sub *<URL>*
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It will default to English, but you can specify another language with the flag --sub-lang:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
youtube-dl --sub-lang sv --write-auto-sub *<URL>*
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can list all available subtitles with:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
yt-dlp --list-subs *<URL>*
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It's also possible to skip the video and only download the subtitle if you add the flag --skip-download:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
yt-dlp --sub-lang sv --write-auto-sub --skip-download *<URL>*
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Alternative
|
|
|
|
Try `yt-dlp` for some additional features and workarounds.
|
|
It uses the same flags as yt-dlp.
