Absolutely. YouTubeTS works with both manually-added subtitles and YouTube's auto-generated captions in any available language.
Some videos have captions disabled by the uploader. In that case, we'll let you know the transcript isn't available. Most public videos with speech have auto-generated captions.
TXT gives you clean plain text. SRT includes timestamps for use in video editors or subtitle players. JSON provides structured data with start/end times for developers and automation.
The transcript text comes from the video's captions. Make sure you have permission from the content creator before republishing or repurposing their content.
