The demo simply demonstrates how I used my tool. It requires some manual set up:
- TTML files are downloaded via CLI: `yt-dlp.exe --skip-download --write-auto-sub --sub-format ttml`
- TTML files are converted to the OTR .MD format via my CLI tool
- The MD file can be dragged & dropped onto the web app.

I think it is possible to download SBV/TTML files, but the download must be done from the server due to CORS restrictions.
My app didn't go this far due to limitations of the (serverless) platform it is hosted on. Also it was faster to just do the steps manually vs. developing a server that does it.
I have seen many services that download the transcript. Here are a few:
- https://youtubetranscript.com https://youtubetranscript.com
- https://kagi.com/summarizer https://kagi.com/summarizer
- https://www.tubepen.com https://www.tubepen.com
However, note YouTube may block your server if you download too many transcripts: https://kagifeedback.org/d/4451-universal-summarizer-cant-find-transcript-yet-finds-transcript-for-slightly-different-url-edition/9 https://kagifeedback.org/d/4451-universal-summarizer-cant-fi...
