What problem does it solve?
This skill enables rapid retrieval of transcripts from YouTube videos by downloading available subtitles (in .vtt) or generating a transcript via Whisper when subtitles are not present, saving time compared to manual transcription.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Subtitle download: Retrieve manual or auto-generated subtitles for a YouTube video.
- Whisper transcription fallback: Transcribe audio when subtitles are unavailable.
- Text-ready outputs: Produce clean transcripts in .vtt or plain text for analysis or content summaries.
- Use Case: Analysts can build searchable video transcripts for large video libraries to enable faster keyword search and summarization.
Quick Start
Provide a YouTube URL to download the transcript. The skill will check available subtitles, prefer manual subtitles, and fall back to Whisper transcription if needed. Then save the transcript as a .vtt file and optional plain text.
